Due to a massive identity theft case tried in the US, the spotlight is firmly on the safety of our credit card system and our identity.
Although this is a simple enough problem, the answer may be far from simple. A number of security companies dealing in the e-commerce, told recently in press conferences that card information for both credit and debit cards is vulnerable but that they are putting massive amounts of time and money into rectifying this.
In what was seen by many as a shock statement Perry Tancredi of VeriSign told a BBC reporter that credit and debit card information is just not incredibly secure, Perry is senior product manager for fraud detection this to me is one hell of a statement and scares me to death.
Now if that scares the pants of you here is his next statement. But it is counterbalanced by the amount of fraud losses due to cheque fraud and direct debit fraud which is much greater than credit card fraud. So I bet your much happier now. The long and short |
