“Linkable Networks is demoing our completely new, industry first patent-pending SKU (individual product) card-linked offer capability to the Finovate audience. We will highlight the capability through our new mobile applications, which enable any type of restaurant, service provider, retailer, or brand to capitalize on card linked offers in a mobile environment.
Additionally, savvy shoppers are empowered to access digital coupons at their fingertips, linking them to their existing credit or debit cards. Our solution leverages a combination of the payment card rails, strategic third party data, and merchant and manufacturer relationships which allows our ad network partners to distribute both merchant and SKU level offers to any consumer in any medium. Both of these differentiating factors translate to a much larger funnel of available and relevant offers as well as an increased reach and frequency of consumer engagement.”

Silver Tail Systems Identifies Parameter Injection Threats
“As malware becomes more prevalent on end-user devices, criminals are devising new ways to exploit these compromised machines. One of the latest threats is parameter injection.
In parameter injection, the malware intercepts the html associated with the website before it is displayed on the end-user’s machine. The html is modified so that new parameters are shown to the user. These parameters request personal information from the end user in an innocuous way. Silver Tail’s Parameter Injection threat score identifies when there are extra parameters in the http stream returned to the banking website. This can be used to determine when an end user’s machine is infected and whether or not any personal information was lost.”

Expensify Trips Aims to Make Travelling Easier
Then, Expensify showed how its Trips platform makes travelling easier by helping you get a head start on processing travel receipts:
“Expensify Trips! Forward your travel itineraries to receipts@expensify.com and let SmartScan pull out the details for fast access inside the Expensify mobile app (iPhone, Android, BlackBerry, Windows Phone). Includes everything you’d expect – streamlined presentation, offline access, flight reminders, etc. But since travel itineraries are also travel receipts, this means you’re halfway done with your expense report before you even get started: create your whole report in one click after you land, receipts and all. After all, travel itineraries are just expense reports waiting to be submitted, so why not kill two birds with one stone?
Expensify Trips is one more way Expensify gets a little better (or in this case – a lot better), every day. Free to sign up, free to use, and lots of premium goodies on top.”
