EntrustDatacard_FinDEVr2015_logoConsumers, citizens, and employees increasingly expect anytime-anywhere experiences, whether they are making purchases, crossing borders, accessing e-gov services or logging onto corporate networks. Entrust Datacard offers the trusted identity and secure transaction technologies that make those experiences reliable and secure. Solutions range from the physical world of financial cards, passports, and ID cards to the digital realm of authentication, certificates, and secure communications.

Securing the omnichannel experience with a trusted identity
Mobile and cloud are transforming the digital marketplace, providing unprecedented opportunity for financial institutions to differentiate with “friction free,” customer-led interactions. At the core of the omnichannel experience, trusted identities can be leveraged not only to secure access, but also to assist in the fight against fraud and transform processes that will lead to higher opt-in rates and increased customer stickiness.

Key takeaways:

  • Take away a use-case for trusted identities in next-generation digital banking
  • Explore innovative services that will ultimately help redefine the consumer banking experience
  • Discover how to leverage trusted identities to secure access and prevent fraud at the core of the omnichannel experience.

Clarify_FinDEVr2015_logoThe Clarify.io API gives you the ability to search and understand your audio and video to make them actionable.

Don’t be a Smaug, reinvest!
You’ve collected terabytes of recordings. You protect them like Smaug protected his gold. If someone wants to hear what a trader said to a customer, they face a multi-day, 15-step process just to listen to it. That’s insane. Recordings are full of data that could be used to make gold. You could help clients get better information faster. You could see patterns before they appear in trade data. You could extract relationship information that belongs to the company, but instead compliance officers hoard it like gold and discard it as soon as the retention policy allows. “Honey, where did you put that bag of money?” “Oh, I threw it out. I didn’t think we needed it anymore.”

Key takeaways:

  • There’s a lot of actionable data buried in your compliance recordings.
  • That actionable data is worth a lot of money.
  • It’s easier to get at than you think.
