In previous posts, we’ve discussed the importance of PCI compliance as well as some of the many misconceptions around it. During this month’s #eCommChat, we’d like to expand on this PCI conversation and discuss some of the complications specific to mobile shopping. Consumers and retailers alike are embracing mCommerce, and online merchants need to be able to navigate new security and compliance vulnerabilities in order to stay ahead.
We want to know: What are some of the biggest challenges eCommerce merchants face around PCI compliance – Mobile web access, payment gateways, customer data storage, or something else? Which specific compliance concerns and solutions do you think are most compelling for SMBs vs. their larger counterparts? Can embracing alternative payment systems help mitigate some of these concerns, and if so, how?
Additionally, what are some of the most frequent PCI challenges you’ve seen specific to mobile retail sites, and what do online merchants need to do moving forward to address these issues?
Thursday, 1/31 at 11am PT, join @McAfeeSECURE and Sally Baptiste, McAfee Director of Global Credit Card and Electronic Receipts to share your experiences, best practices, and recommendations with the eCommerce community to address these questions and more.
