Chip-and-PIN Security for Payment Cards Won’t Happen Until 2020: Forrester

Chip-and-PIN Security for Payment Cards Won’t Happen Until 2020: Forrester | Payments Ecosystem | Scoop.it
The new payment standards don’t address fundamental security issues, Forrester says, and adoption could be slowed by the rise of new technologies like mobile and contactless payments from companies like Apple.
Vineet Anand's insight:

No new news here !! We know the complete Chip & Pin adoption is at least 4-5 years away in the absence of a regulatory (Fed) driven date. In 2016 US market will see an unprecedented rise in Online Fraud driven by chip and pin at some merchants brick & mortar locations and 3DES new specs are slated for release by end of this year! Plus will need to see response from networks in EMV for driving new 3DES specs. 


Merchants that are more likely to use Chip & Pin terminals are driven by either fraud / security concerns similar to Target breach OR are upgrading terminals to provide a rich customer experience integrated with contactless and proximity marketing solutions. New retail terminals with EMV, Contactless, strip card, blue-tooth capabilities shift will be driven more by merchants that are focused on driving a augmented retail experience at store. 


Small merchants will need to assess what level of losses exist today vs. what is the cost to upgrade - the resulting business case will drive that acceptance. 


EMV is a function of building level of security for transactions, however requires a greater subset of solutions including Tokenization, P2PE, intrusion detection and network management as cloud based solutions gain greater momentum.
