REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Aug. 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As online transactions become increasingly ubiquitous, ensuring the security of card-not-present (CNP) and digital payments is paramount. Modern consumers use a variety of devices (e.g., computers, tablets, mobile phones) to make online purchases, introducing potential vectors for fraudsters to exploit if buyers are not properly authenticated. The Secure Technology Alliance’s Identity and Access Forum responds to this issue with the release of its new white paper, “Device Identification and Authentication Methods for Payments.”
“We’re proud to have brought together a group of dedicated subject matter experts to create this comprehensive resource for the broad spectrum of payment stakeholders,” said Sandy Mayfield, managing director of the Identity and Access Forum. “It provides an overview of the tools and techniques payment professionals can use to enhance security in CNP transactions. By addressing the challenges of device identification and consumer authentication and exploring solutions like EMV 3D-Secure (3DS) and network tokenization, the paper aims to guide stakeholders toward more safe and efficient online transaction processes.”
The following is included within the scope of the white paper:
The white paper was created by the Device Identification and Authentication Project Team. Organizations, associations, government agencies and individuals interested in participating in future Forum projects can visit the Secure Technology Alliance’s website to learn how to become a member. By joining the Secure Technology Alliance, members will have access to activities within the Identity and Access Forum and additional Alliance-affiliated organizations, including the development of industry-driven webinars, white papers, infographics and training programs.
