integration
with Enhanced Rich Internet Applications = enhanced
customer service
Increased revenue with e-commerce

best practices in information security
A comprehensive, strategic view of
network security helps retailers realize

More Company Value Depends On Networks
Leveraging networks to increase customer satisfaction

real-time order placement, etc.)
Maintenance of customer data (loyalty programs, mailing lists,
purchase history and warranty information, service records, etc.)
Remote/mobile connectivity for direct sales at customer premises
Remote/mobile connectivity with outbound installation, support and
service calls
More electronic self-service (online, kiosks, store-provided handheld
or shopping cart device, loyalty program status checking)
More Company Value Depends On Networks
Leveraging networks to cut operating costs
Vendor integration with corporate systems
Third-party (installers, service and support providers) access to data
Online tunnels to data in support of ecommerce initiatives
Fractional staff (call-centers, telecommuter) access to systems and records
More Company Value Depends On Networks

Contact centers (phone)
Catalog/direct mail sales
Online
Affiliate sales
Outsourcing cross-channel operations to cut operating costs
Call-centers for phone sales

Network Threats are Business Threats
When you open up your systems to opportunities, you
open them up to threats:
Supply chain visibility at POS (open systems to vendors)
System viruses or attacks can slow or stop transactions
Maintenance of customer data (open systems to employees)
Potential financial and legal jeopardy from lost or
stolen data – or inappropriate content in the workplace
Remote connectivity (open systems to contractors/telecommuters)
Exposes customer records to theft
Electronic self-service (online, kiosks) (open systems to customers)
Creates vulnerabilities for hacking and phishing/pharming scams
PCI-DSS
Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards
PCI Standards Council
JCB and Visa International
American Express
Discover Financial Services
MasterCard Worldwide
The protection of cardholder data anywhere it resides
within, or is transmitted by, a merchant’s system.
Enforced by credit card companies, not governments - yet
Non-compliance can result in fines, restrictions of credit
card services and loss of consumer confidence
12
PCI?.. Yes!
Credit card companies don’t want to foot the bill for
retailers’ data security breaches
They’ve pushed the liability down to the retailers
Compliance with PCI standards is voluntary, but even one
mistake can be one too many!
The good news: PCI standards are just sound network
practices
Real Security Is More Than PCI
Compromised systems run slower or fail completely
What will 1 minute lost per customer cost in employee expenses
and customer loyalty?
Liability judgments come right off the bottom line
Data breaches cost $350 per lost customer record*; what would
such a loss cost you?
Each additional connection to your network increases your exposure
exponentially
Do you know how many users your vendors allow to access the system?
What % of your outsourced services are fulfilled by contract/fractional staff?
Catastrophic data loss can be fatal
93% of companies that experience
“significant data loss” are out of business
in 5 years**

Security Considerations in Retail Solutions
Global management: Can you see and control access to your
network and databases down to the user level?
Network traffic “lanes”: Can you segment and control different
kinds of network traffic based on security levels (i.e. transactions
from outsourced call center vs. O&O storefronts)?
Activity controls: Can you permit or deny different types of
network activity (i.e. accessing financial information)?
Content filtering: Can you accept or reject different file types
and Internet content (i.e. music files and video downloads)?
Stored data protection: Can you secure and preserve customer
and proprietary data across your organization so that it doesn’t
get lost or corrupted?
Security Considerations in Retail Solutions
Wireless network access: Can you secure your
premises equipment from being used/accessed from the
street?
Inappropriate content in the workplace: Can you
prevent the use of gambling or other online shopping sites
from appearing in the workplace?
Digital Signage: Can you secure your premises
equipment from being disrupted/misused?
VoIP: Can you protect telephone-based business on this
Internet-based platform?
