Retailers’ existing traditional security systems are not robust or secure enough to handle the increasing volume of data filtering across web-enabled processes and devices. Brands operate legacy-based point-of-sale hardware, software and payments terminals — all of which are becoming vulnerability points.
A digitally-influenced retail experience may enable brands to conduct business from a variety of touch points, but it is also putting their enterprises under siege from cyber-criminals. By adopting next-generation security measures, including data loss prevention methods, cloud-based solutions, and call center protection initiatives, retailers are sheltering sensitive digital content, and lessening their exposure to cyber-threats.
