Which statement about the Attestation of Compliance (AOC) is correct?

 Attestation of Compliance (AOC):

The AOC is a document that confirms an entity’s compliance with PCI DSS requirements. It is signed by the entity (merchant or service provider) and the Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) if a QSA is involved.

 Different AOC Templates:

PCI DSS provides distinct templates for service providers and merchants, tailored to their respective roles and responsibilities within the cardholder data environment (CDE)​​.

 Invalid Options:

B:PCI SSC does not sign AOCs; they are signed by the merchant/service provider and the QSA.

C:AOCs differ between ROCs and SAQs, so the same template is not universally used.

D:Both the merchant/service provider and the QSA/ISA (Internal Security Assessor) must sign the AOC when applicable.
