The battle to protect your business – and customers – against fraud and identity theft is fought on all fronts. It’s often against an invisible enemy using every trick in the book, from cutting-edge technology to old-fashioned social engineering. Yet the reports of data breaches – of credit card numbers and consumer information being pilfered – continue, hitting many of the biggest businesses in the world.
The damage, both reputational and financial, can be debilitating. Fines from the card associations, government and regulatory agencies can exceed $500,000 per breach.
