Senior Staff Writer Ann Train received the following note regarding "Mobile Payments Bill of Rights offers best practice framework," The Green Sheet, Sept. 28, 2015, issue 15:09:02:
"[T]hat is a wonderful write-up … thanks so much for covering this. As an update, my trip to Capitol Hill was super-successful. I met with several congressional leaders as part of our talk about the future of mobile payments – and the Mobile Payments Bill of Rights was well received as part of those discussions. The document is now with [members of Congress], the ETA (Electronic Transactions Association) and several companies. "As a side note, analyst firm Frost & Sullivan has lent its support (and endorsement) to the Bill of Rights. If you should ever want to speak with them, let me know. Brent Iadarola heads their mobile practice. … I look forward to our paths crossing, soon. We will be speaking at the Annual AFP Conference in Denver; if you are attending, let us know."

Keymer Inc. founder and Lead Consultant Simon Keymer, who works with the PCI Security Standards Council, alerted us to a new infographic: Fight Cybercrime by Making Data Worthless to Thieves. He said it "is very helpful in putting EMV in context alongside complementary technologies, tokenization and point-to-point encryption (P2PE). It is … available on the PCI website, https://www.pcisecuritystandards.org/documents/PCI-CyberCrime-FinalR.pdf?utm_campaign=2015%20Community%20Meetings&utm_content=22017999&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter."
He also noted that the "context is crucial to understanding EMV's role in the 'secure-all-channels' payment security strategy being implemented" in the United States.
Simon,
