    Default PCI Compliance

    I am having compliance scans coming back as failing. I am using version 1.5.1. Most of the issues are referring to OpenSSH and Apache. Are those issues that would go away upgrading to 1.5.4 or are they problems with my hosting service? Between the scan company my rep at my merchant services, and my hosting company I can not get a straightforward answer. I am in the middle of trying to launch new product and would like to put off upgrading for a little while, but if upgrading would fix these issues I'll just have to give up sleep for a few days and get it done.
    Thanks

    If able, I think it would help to know what "issues" with OpenSSH and Apache are being identified, though perhaps others may know enough from that statement to provide a clear answer...

    One of the recomendations is to upgrade from OpenSSH 5.1 to version 7. Doing that would get rid of like 10 alerts the scan is showing. Problem is, I have absolutely no clue what they are talking about is OpenSSH on the host server end or is that part of zencart?

    That's a host issue to correct though sometimes difficult for a host to change versioning on a shared server due to potential impact of other tenants. Very few PCI issues have ever been related to zencart from my past 6 years of having scans performed monthly.

    It is very rare for to pass without having to correct something. Today, it was 6 ports that were closed by server IPS during the middle of the scan even with the PCI scanner's IP addresses being whitelisted. It is hard to imagine failing a scan because IPS was doing the job it was designed to do.

    Thank you for the replies, it is a shared server, time to look into other options.
