Exploring all aspects of the problem in detail – from how attacks are structured to the structure of magnetic strips to point-to-point encryption, and more – it’s packed with practical recommendations. This terrific resource goes beyond standard PCI compliance guides to offer real solutions on how to achieve better security at the point of sale.
