Smart Card Alliance to Host Webinar on Benefits and Implementation of EMV Tokenization for Stronger Payments Security

Tokenization – the process of substituting valuable data with a token made up of random alphanumeric characters – has the potential to be a payments security game-changer for its ability to protect sensitive account data for in-store and online transactions. Issuers, acquirers, processors, merchants and service providers can find out all about tokenization and how to implement it at the November Smart Card Alliance webinar, “EMV Tokenization.”

The one-hour webinar will be held on November 3, 2016 at 1pm ET (10am PT). To register, visit https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/5182475867510822401.

“Tokenization is going to have a significant impact on the payments industry going forward as more mobile solutions come to market, and as more consumers are adopting them,” said Randy Vanderhoof, executive director of the Smart Card Alliance. “Understanding how tokenization changes the way payment credentials are used and secured is crucial for stakeholders looking to incorporate the technology into their security plans. This webinar will provide attendees with that necessary information, and will give perspective on how this plays a role in both in-store and online transactions.”
