Risk Management and Compliance
In May 2012, The PCI Security
Standards Council issued a new
document which explains its views
on Mobile Payment security, and
provides guidelines for online
merchants, which accept payments
through mobile devices, such as
smartphones or tablets.
“The ability to use smartphones
and tablets as PoS terminals to
accept payments in place of traditional
hardware terminals offers great
flexibility,” a prepared
statement reads. “As mobile
technology continues to change
at a rapid pace, the Council continues
to work with the industry to ensure
data security remains at the forefront
of mobile evolution.” |
