PCI-DSS [Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard] is the global data security standard that any business of any size must adhere to in order to accept payment cards, and to store, process, and/or transmit cardholder data. Businesses must perform regular scans to ensure their ongoing adherence to PCI compliance standards. For more information please see the following resources:

My PCI Compliance Scan failed, what should I do?
First review the full scan report that was sent to you by your PCI compliance scan provider. The most common failure notice, and one that you can address, is failure due to TLS 1.0 open connections.
What you should know
TLS 1.0 connections are being phased out over the next few years, however all major eCommerce providers still use these connections for some functions. These connections are still PCI compliant if a risk mitigation plan is in place by the eCommerce provider during the transition period. A vast sector of web users have not yet updated their browsers and continue to use TLS 1.0 only systems.
Existing software and systems have a grace period (June 30th, 2018) to update their systems as customers and browsers work to update to newer systems. These open connections can be used by existing software vendors as long as a risk mitigation plan is in place for the transition period.
How can I resolve this on my scan?
During this transition period your scan provider needs to know the steps that your eCommerce provider [WineDirect] is taking to provide a secure environment during this period and has a risk mitigation plan in place. Please download and modify any bold text in the document below and send it to your scan provider for TLS 1.0 PCI failures.

What are WineDirect's URLs and IP Addresses?
The WineDirect platform is comprised of several applications all running on different URL's and IP addresses. The platform is hosted in Amazon's Cloud infrastructure and by design all IP Addresses are dynamic and may change at any time.
If you work for a large company, enterprise or operate on a shared network, there may be enforced network or internet security by restricting access to only pre approved URLs that are whitelisted. To ensure the WineDirect platform applications will work you will need to either whitelist the wildcard *.vin65.com to approve all URLs or whitelist the list of URLs in use below if wildcards are not permitted. Permitting access by IP address is not available as the IP address are dynamic and change frequently.If your payment gateway is Chase Paymentech, you will need to register all WineDirect outbound IP addresses with Chase to ensure payment transactions will go through. See below for the list of IP addresses to register.
