Is avast! 7 PCI Compliant? (avast remote assistance)

Questions from my reseller of POS systems:

Re: avast remote assistance

why is it installed by default?

is it PCI Compliant? (remote software must be disabled by default and require interaction at the computer to activate)

J.R. Guthrie & Alex Baab

does this help ?

No, sir! It did not say!

It does require interaction by both users

The one requesting will generate a code which must be entered by the other user… No code, no access

I believe that makes up PCI Compliant!

Thank you, sir! J.R. Guthrie
