While EMV is a step in the right direction when it comes to data security, retailers are faced with a constant struggle to stay one step ahead of clever, determined cyberthieves.
This infographic from Infinite Peripherals reminds retailers that EMV is just one component of a comprehensive payment security solution. For example, it can’t protect data during Card Not Present (CNP) transactions, nor can it secure data stored for recurring transactions. Retailers need multiple “security blankets,” including EMV, tokenization and encryption, to maximize the safety of payments and data.
