Payment Security

A massive data breach recently was discovered at Desjardins, one of the largest federations of credit unions in North America. Information related to names, addresses, birth dates, social insurance numbers, email addresses and information about transaction habits of 2.7 million group members and 173,000 business customers were compromised.

Despite the best efforts of businesses to beef up their internet security, hacks, data breaches and cyber-attacks continue to be a serious threat to their customers’ sensitive and confidential information, particularly their credit card data.
