To prevent the spread of the new strain of coronavirus in Viet Nam, customers are encouraged to adopt

cashless payment methods.

Some banks and fintech firms have taken the opportunity to promote the safety of cashless payments, especially

after news that the People’s Bank of China is using ultraviolet light and high-temperature ovens to disinfect incoming

cash. The bank also started replacing old notes with newly minted bills on February 4.

Nguyen Ba Diep, CEO of Momo, an e-wallet with more than 12 million users, told Viet Nam News: "Tests have

shown cash harbours a wide variety of bacteria which can be transmitted by contact. The coronavirus is spread

through normal contact, so cash is likely to be a risky source."

Diep quoted health experts as saying as 90 per cent of people in Viet Nam use cash, banknotes are sources of

pathogens and pose a threat to public health.

While e–wallets like Moca and Airpay promoted the use of online payments, some banks are following suit and

telling their customers to switch to online transactions while the epidemic continues.

On its Facebook page, SeABank told its customers to use electronic banking to check balances, transfer money

and pay bills instead of going to the bank.

Ocean Bank told its customers to use the #EasyOceanBankMobile if they did not want to go to a branch.

Le Thi Thanh Hang, deputy director of the State Bank of Viet Nam (SBV)'s branch in HCM City, told local media on

February 5 that the SBV has boosted the use of non-cash payments for a long time.

She added that passing from hand to hand, the banknotes were definitely not clean, adding: “It is advisable to

gradually switch to digital payment methods and e-commerce instead of direct exchange with each other using cash

during an outbreak.”

According to banking experts, Viet Nam, with a population of 97 million people, is a great market for fintech firms,

including e-wallets, as more than 80 per cent of the retail market uses cash.

The Department of E-commerce and Digital Economy under the Ministry of Industry and Trade reported an annual

growth of 35 per cent in the local fintech sector while the 'e. Economy SEA 2019' report by Google, Temasek

Holding and Bain & Co said that digital payments in Southeast Asia are expected to cross $1 trillion by 2025,

becoming the payment method for nearly one in two dollars spent in the region.

Juniper Research reports that contactless payments will triple to $6 trillion worldwide by 2024, from about $2 trillion this year, as OEM mobile wallet transactions increase and banks expand the use of contactless cards. The report found that several factors will account for the increase, including the increased use of contactless POS and public transit use in the U.S. and widespread use of mobile wallets in the Chinese market, where billions of customers use smartphone-enabled apps for shopping, funds transfer and other uses. Research analyst Susannah Hampton told Mobile Payments Today that the U.S. market has recently converted most terminals from magnetic stripe to EMV and much of the infrastructure is now in place to accept contactless payments. "Many of the newer EMV enabled point-of-sale terminals in use are compatible with contactless card payments and just require software installation or updates," she said in an email. "The additional transaction time introduced with the transition to EMV is reduced through the use of contactless cards, leading to an improved experience for cardholders." In the U.S. market, contactless transaction values are expected to rise at an even higher rate than the global market, reaching $1.5 trillion by 2024, compared with about $178 billion in 2020. Several major banks in the U.S., including JPMorgan Chase and others, announced plans to convert millions of credit and debit cardholders to cards that are contactless-enabled, which will allow significant increases in contactless use by customers not using smartphone-enabled mobile wallets. Apple Pay is expected to make up about 52% of OEM transaction values by 2024, compared with about 43% in 2020. The launch of Apple Card from Apple and Goldman Sachs is expected to have a significant impact on contactless use, as the service operates through the iPhone which is used by millions of loyal customers worldwide.

Apple’s mobile wallet is growing very fast and taking a chunk of card payments around the world with it. Apple Pay

accounts for about 5% of global card transactions and is on pace to handle 1-in-10 such payments by 2025,

according to recent trend data compiled by Bernstein, a research firm. “There are indeed plenty of reasons to worry

that Apple may attempt to disrupt the payments ecosystem,” Bernstein analysts wrote in a research note.

As iPhone sales plateau, Apple is manoeuvring into its services division, which includes Apple Pay. The unit

generated $12.7 billion in revenue in the last three months of 2019, a 17% increase from a year earlier. The

company’s payments ambitions have the benefit of a massive cash hoard, years of experience in card transactions,

and a vast customer base consisting of hundreds of millions of iPhone users.

The digital payments race is an immense opportunity, representing about $1 trillion in revenue around world. Visa

and Mastercard process more than $14 trillion of payments each year and are still growing as more transactions

go online, flow through apps, and as consumers in many parts of the world use cash less often.

Apple Pay users store their credit and debit cards on the wallet and use it to make contactless payments with

biometric security through their phone’s NFC tech. In the US, contactless payments are forecast to increase to

$1.5 trillion in 2024, up from $178 billion this year.

Apple CEO Tim Cook is aiming to give the wallet an extra boost by linking it to cash backs through the company’s

credit card. Apple Pay revenue and transactions more than doubled in its last fiscal quarter, Cook said recently in

a conference call with analysts, and the wallet is becoming more widely available for train and bus commuting

around the world, with rollouts in Chinese cities like Shenzhen and Guangzhou coming this spring.

Apple Pay probably won’t pose a challenge to the card giants anytime soon. While the tech company could, in

theory, create its own network that runs outside the card systems, Bernstein argues that Apple still needs the card

networks, which are ubiquitous and trusted. Visa and Mastercard, meanwhile, are used to dealing with partners

(traditionally large card-issuing banks) with the kind of scale that even Apple Pay could muster.

The same may not be true for other wallets. “Apple Pay is indeed one of the long-term competitive threats to

PayPal,” Bernstein analysts note. For now, PayPal has a commanding lead in the world of online checkouts, and

also benefits from network effects that have been building up since the turn of the century. But Apple and PayPal

could end up competing for the same turf in the coming years.

30 million cards from Wawa breach turn up for sale on

dark web

The payment card details of more than 30 million Americans, believed to have been stolen in a data breach

at convenience store chain Wawa, have been put up for sale on the dark web.

Earlier this week, carding forum Joker's Stash put up the details of cards issued by thousands of banks across

the US. The batch, called BIGBADABOOM-III, is from the Wawa breach, according to security experts at

Gemini Advisory.

Wawa revealed in December that malware had been installed on its point-of-sale systems nine months earlier,

affecting all of its 860 convenience stores, 600 of which are also gas stations. The stolen data includes card

numbers, expiration dates, and cardholder names.

According to Gemeni, the Joker's Stash dump involved more than 30 million cards from more than 40 US

states. Cards are being sold for about $17 a piece.

Wawa says that it is aware the card data has surfaced and that it has alerted its payment processor, card

brands, and issuers to "heighten fraud monitoring activities".

EMV doesn't have to mean a

boost in e-commerce fraud

The growth of e-commerce, m-commerce and remote commerce transactions

is showing no signs of slowing down, nor is fraud.

In 2021, more than 2.14 billion people worldwide are expected to buy goods

and services online, up from 1.32 billion in 2014. The growth of card-not-

present (CNP) transactions has driven a new age of consumer convenience

but in parallel, a new age of fraud.

As EMV chip card adoption gathers momentum, with 76.7% of card-present

transactions being EMV, fraudsters are looking for an easier way in. And the

stats speak for themselves – digital fraud rates now account for 60-70% of all

card fraud in many developed countries. In fact, it was even estimated that the

gains made from savings in card-present fraud were eclipsed in 2018 by the

losses from CNP fraud. This is not only affecting approval rates but also all-

important consumer trust. So, what can be done? EMV 3-D Secure – EMV 3DS

for short – is one solution that’s leading the way in the CNP "catch up."

EMV 3DS is a messaging protocol used to identify and verify cardholders for CNP

transactions. The specification improves communication between the issuing bank, the

acquirer and the merchant. By doing more work "in the background," it’s able to streamline

the user experience, improve approval rates and reduce fraud. These features reduce online

authentication friction.

The first version of the messaging protocol was initiated by Visa and was quickly followed by

other international payment schemes. This was a fragmented and complex solution for the

industry, however. Now, industry body EMVCo has taken ownership and is managing the

evolution of the specifications.

The latest version of the EMV 3DS specifications includes new features to address the pain

points of the old protocol. These improvements aim to deliver consumers a much smoother

experience and keep transactions safe from new techniques employed by fraudsters. Let’s

take a look at the new features and how they can improve the digital retail experience.

One of the new features set to enhance the consumer experience is the support for biometric

technology that consumers have gained access to recently. Many shoppers are now familiar

with a variety of biometric authentication methods, such as facial and fingerprint recognition.

For some it is still a novelty to pay using your face, but this doesn’t mean it’s not a priority;

it’s predicted that we’ll see nearly 90% of businesses using it by 2020.

Another feature that has been added to the latest version of EMV 3DS is the

support for new use cases, including identification and verification applications,

as well as payments. While these use cases are still being explored and defined,

they could include features such as adding a new payment card to a mobile wallet

and opening a new account online. And it’s not just consumer use cases that are

being explored. In the future, EMV 3DS could even be used by governments to

authenticate citizens.

Simplifying alignment with regulatory requirements is another major bonus of

EMV 3DS, especially with an increasing number of countries mandating

multifactor authentication in CNP environments. Take Europe’s PSD2 and the

strong customer authentication (SCA) mandates, for example. Implementing EMV

3DS offers banks an opportunity to utilize the same infrastructure to process SCA

as well as EMV 3DS transactions. With more data included in the message

requests, indications such as whether Acquirer SCA or a transactional risk

analysis (TRA) have already been performed, or if a customer utilized a FIDO

authenticator, can simplify the authentication process.

Wherever in the online payments chain you sit, EMV 3DS is a compelling

authentication solution fit for the omnichannel age, especially now that it includes

these new elements. But, as with any major system upgrade, implementation

does not come without its challenges and testing requirements.

Before embarking on an EMV 3DS project – whether an entirely new system or

upgrading a legacy system – there are three key stages of testing to consider:

functional, security and integration with payment schemes.

Understanding what scope of testing falls to each stakeholder and navigating the

three stages quickly and cost-effectively can be a challenge. And it’s here where

support from a reliable testing and consulting expert on EMV 3DS can be

invaluable.

(paymentssource)

EMV doesn't have to mean a boost in e-commerce fraud (cont.)

The act of replacing ineffective static passwords with more complex authenticators is

much more secure and user-friendly. Implementing support for these methods of

authentication can help merchants with their aims to reduce cart abandonment. Twenty-

eight percent of U.S. online shoppers have previously admitted to quitting orders due to

checkout processes being too long or complicated and 17% said that they have

abandoned checkout because they didn’t trust the website with their credit card

information. Therefore, striking the right balance between convenience and security is

fundamental.

The increase of choice isn’t just limited to more authentication options than before.

Another new feature of the latest version of EMV 3DS enables both customers and

merchants to have greater input. Customers will be able to "whitelist" merchants with

their issuer when setting up, say, a recurring purchase. This lets banks know a full

review is not required, reduces customer prompts and can help support banks in risk-

scoring merchants.

By feeding more data elements collected from the shoppers to the issuers, merchants

can further improve the frictionless transaction experience. This increase of choice for

customers, merchants and issuers benefits all parties, as it gives customers an easier

experience and provides valuable customer data that can be used to inform the

development of new services.

lời kêu gọi khắc phục 5 trường hợp bảo mật yếu kém điển hình lại Hội nghị Tội phạm mạng. Cụ thể là:

Mật khẩu yếu

Thiếu bản vá lỗ hổng

Phần mềm diệt virus lỗi thời

Thiếu sự giám sát

Sử dụng những hệ thống dễ bị tổn thương, chẳng hạn như ColdFusion, Windows XP, WordPress lạc hậu và những hệ

thống tương tự khác. Brian Honan dự báo 5 “căn bệnh mãn tính” nói trên sẽ vẫn tiếp tục hành hạ thế giới bởi vẫn còn

rất nhiều tổ chức tiếp tục sử dụng công nghệ lạc hậu.

3. Thêm nhiều nỗi lo về bảo mật điểm cuối

Một trong vụ việc nghiêm trọng nhất trong năm 2017 là sự bùng phát dữ dội của mã độc tống tiền WannaCry. Theo

Avivah Litan - Phó Chủ tịch và là nhà phân tích cấp cao của Gartner, WannaCry có thể đã bị chặn đứng nếu mọi người

được cung cấp bản vá lỗi. Tuy vậy các tổ chức vẫn phải đối mặt với thách thức từ công tác quản lý bản vá.

“An ninh điểm cuối khác với quản lý công nghệ thông tin. Điều đó có nghĩa là chúng ta luôn dễ dàng triển khai các hệ

thống nhưng sẽ gặp rất nhiều khó khăn khi chuyển đổi hệ thống sang trạng thái ngoại tuyến để tiến hành hoạt động

bảo trì hoặc dành ưu tiên cho những lỗ hổng cần phải vá lại. Và kết quả là có hàng loạt hệ thống tồn tại những điểm

yếu điển hình. Không bất ngờ khi 80% đến 90% mã độc tống tiền đã lợi dụng những lỗi chung này”, Avivah Litan cho

biết.

Để khắc phục tình trạng nói trên, theo Avivah Litan, tất cả các tổ chức cần phải sử dụng phần mềm diệt virus “mới nhất

và tốt nhất” bởi vì các thế hệ mới sẽ có khả năng phát hiện và phản ứng tốt hơn, đặt biệt là những sản phẩm dựa trên

công nghệ điện toán đám mây.
