Course Description

Criminals are especially devious when it comes to payment fraud enabled by technology. They study the banking system and processes, technology and your company. They know the ins and outs and where there are weaknesses. And, they do their research, marrying their knowledge with social media to devise ways to defraud your organization in ways never dreamt of in the past.

Many professionals think payment fraud could never happen to their organizations. Unfortunately, the numbers tell a different story. Eventually, every single organization will come into the spotlight of one or more crooks. Without the proper precautions, the fraudsters will succeed. Complicating the issue is the fact that whether we like to admit it or not, the risk is both internal and external. What’s more; the old fraud aren’t going away. Companies need to be vigilant on all fronts.

Has your organization taken all the steps it needs to protect itself? Has your strategy been reviewed within the last 12 months? In this session, we’ll address the newest electronic payment frauds and the protections every organization needs along with reviewing the tactics needed to protect against older types of fraud.
