Retail Customer Experience recently hosted the webinar "EMV is coming to the U.S. ...are you ready?" The live event, sponsored by Cryptera, is now available for on-demand viewing.
Experts from Cryptera used the one-hour event as an opportunity to present the inner workings of EMV transactions, explaining how the system uses chip-and-PIN technology to reduce the likelihood of payment fraud.
Topics covered in the event included:
- What is EMV? Why is it needed? What are the benefits?
- EMV building blocks (elements of an EMV transaction, dynamic authentification, introducing offline PIN verfication, contactless cards)
- How is EMV implemented? (processing prerequisites, EMV approvals, adding an EMV "kernel," certifying the solution)
- EMV in unattended payment – a specific solution
