Scale Computing planned to present at the Conexxus Annual Conference in Arlington, Texas, on January 26 to examine how Artificial Intelligence (AI) affects Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) scoping in convenience retail, a topic the company linked to operations across distributed locations.

The Conexxus Annual Conference brought together participants from the convenience and fuel retail industry to address technology standards, data security, and operational best practices during the January 25–29 program, and the event schedule included expert-led sessions and peer discussions.

Phil Stead prepared a session titled “Lessons From the Field: How AI Changes PCI DSS Scope in Convenience Retail,” which covered the relationship between AI and PCI DSS scope across in-store systems, edge infrastructure, and interconnected operational domains, and highlighted requirements gathering, architectural design, and threat modeling as focal areas.

The presentation lineup listed Stead alongside Justin Mitchell, chief technology officer at Refuel, who planned to describe Refuel’s integration of AI into operations and the resulting effects on efficiency and security, plus practical lessons learned for retailers modernizing their environments; Stead serves as Chair of the Conexxus Data Security Committee and holds CISSP, CISM, PCI-QIR, and PCIP certifications.

“As AI becomes more embedded in retail operations across infrastructure, applications and endpoints, it fundamentally changes how organizations must think about security boundaries and compliance scope,” said Stead. Scale Computing described its participation as related to efforts to help retailers modernize securely at the edge and to enable resilient, compliant infrastructure across thousands of distributed locations.
