Understanding Payment Processing & Data Security to Protect You & Your Business in 2023…
                Explained in Plain English!
                We don’t know what we don’t know, and credit card processing in particular is confusing to almost everyone, and data
         security’s constantly emerging threats can feel a lot like playing an unending game of whack-a-mole. This session will finally explain
         - in plain English - how the payments industry operates and how to control processing costs and secure your sensitive data in the
         midst of rampant card-testing attacks and other online threats so as to prevent costly breaches, protect your Personally Identifiable
         Information (PII), and prevent ransomware infections; and what you can do right now to protect your business, your customers,
         your family, and yourself from hackers, phishers, extortionists, and other cyber miscreants. The information presented applies
         to and is valuable for everyone at all levels. Even many CFOs of major corporations don’t really understand how the payments
         industry works or the true level of risk exposure to the pervasive data security threats facing them, because no one can be an
         expert at everything. Managers who don’t control their companies’ merchant accounts will find the presentation valuable as well
         in how it explains how transactions flow; why not processing chip cards correctly can cost you money; and best practices you
         can easily employ for protecting cardholder data and preventing hacker incursions. Questions from the audience are encouraged
         throughout this interactive session and attendees leave with a newfound understanding of electronic payments and cybersecurity
         and associated best practices.
