Summary

India is becoming a world leader in digital payments, both in terms of the volume of payments and the rate at which online payments are increasing. This growth also attracts cyber-criminals. Recent breach incidents underscore the need for data security for maintaining the growth momentum of digital payments. Phishing, malware and skimming attacks continue to put data at risks.Some best practices can help mitigate such attacks and reduce possibility of breaches. One of the key considerations is to keep the payments data safe and implement strong data security standards that also includes people, process and technology.

Innovation in the payment industry is drastically changing the approach to payment security and standards. New payment techniques bring new opportunities, and leads to new security concerns and challenges. The PCI SSC, a non-profit council, recognizes these opportunities/challenges. The evolving PCI Standards focus on addressing security concerns in the payments systems. The aim of the PCI Security Standards is to help protect cardholder data regardless of the techniques and payment methods used. Please join us for this webinar to learn about:
