Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for assigning scores to target applications, based on one or more security standards, whereby the scores are indicative of the applications' relative security maturity. One exemplary method generally includes receiving an identification of a target application, the target application associated with access to a payment network and soliciting, by a computing device, a response to at least one inquiry regarding a security aspect of the target application. The at least one inquiry is related to at least one standard for data security. The exemplary method further includes assigning, by the computing device, a score to the target application based on the response, as received from a user and publishing the score as associated with the target application to said user or a different user.
