2-Day ATM Security
Workshop
July 3rd
– 4th, 2013, Nairobi
According to Kenyan
press, banks in the country lost over Ksh 1.6 billion ($17.5
million) to fraudsters in the last one year.
Much of the fraud was
perpetuated through ATMs.
Outline
ATMs
are a core component of financial services across the world and ATM use
continues to grow. ATMs offer convenience and can be safe if well-designed and used. The
continued growth and use makes ATMs targets of opportunity for criminals. New
and existing ATMs are a target for fraudsters who use such traditional methods
as card and cash trapping and skimming with increasing sophistication.
Reports
indicate that ATM malware attacks have also led to significant losses recently.
Africa, being the new frontier
of technology development, has witnessed increased use of ATMs as financial
services companies compete for a stake in the market. The continent is
experiencing its share of financial-related crimes, including the use of ATM
for such crimes.
The world at large is
struggling to increase the convenience and safety on the one hand and to reduce
its misuse on the other. An effective remedy for prevention of ATM frauds,
however, cannot be provided unless we understand the true nature of the problem.
Attendees of this session will learn about global
trends in ATM use, ATM-related security issues and solutions thereof.
