FinDEVr Live: Nexmo APIs Use the Cloud to Decrease Fraud, Secure Transactions, and Protect User Identity

nexmo.com | nexmo.com/blog | @nexmo

Nexmo_FinDEVr2015_logoNexmo is the global cloud communications platform leader providing innovative communication APIs and SDKs for voice, text, messaging and phone-verification services. Nexmo enables applications and enterprises to communicate with their customers reliably and with ease, no matter where in the world they are located. Companies such as Alibaba, Airbnb, LINE, and Viber send millions of messages per month using Nexmo APIs. Nexmo was recognized by analyst firm Gartner as a 2014 Cool Vendor in Communication Service and by Roaming Consulting Company as a Tier-1 A2P SMS Messaging Vendor in 2015.

Using the cloud to decrease fraud, secure transactions, and protect user identity
Online and mobile banking has come of age and consumers today are empowered with dozens of convenient ways to manage their finances online. However, securing transactions, protecting user identity and protecting both the financial institutions and consumers from an ever-increasing risk of fraud has not evolved. Most users do not follow the recommended practices for online security, and the fragmentation of online identities implies most of them repeat passwords across their different identities. Strong authentication in such scenarios is often cumbersome and makes for a bad end-user experience. In this session, we share how Nexmo’s APIs and SDKs can help you increase security, significantly decrease fraud and protect user identity, without compromising the end-user’s experience.

Key takeaways:

  • How phone number-based identifiers, coupled with phone-based verifications, can help businesses easily implement strong authentication to increase security, significantly decrease fraud and protect user identity, without compromising the end-user’s experience.
  • How you can quickly and easily integrate Nexmo’s powerful APIs into most fintech-app flows.
  • How to future-proof your engineering efforts by using best practices to be ready for scale from the start, regardless of the size of your user base.

SnoopWall_FinDEVr2015_logoIt’s the year of mCrime (mobile crime), and all banking apps are easily eavesdropped on by ‘trusted apps’ that actually have malware allowed on iTunes, Google Play, and Microsoft App store. SnoopWall will present a live demo of this ‘breaking into my own banking account’ on mobile using a malicious Flashlight App. Then, you’ll learn about AppSHIELD SDK.

Increase adoption of your mobile app with AppSHIELD SDK
AppSHIELD SDK is the only solution to this problem that works. We’ll show how IBM Trusteer SDK and INAUTH SDK and Arxan are easily circumvented by cyber criminals intending to steal consumer PII. If you see AppSHIELD SDK in action (in 95+ financial institutions), you’ll want it in your banking app to protect your consumers and your brand.

Key takeaways:

  • All mobile banking apps are insecure and hackable
  • Many trusted apps exploit these mBanking vulnerabilities
  • Our AppSHIELD SDK is the only solution to make mBanking apps bulletproof against mCrime

MXMX launched its core Digital Money Management (DMM) solution, MoneyDesktop, in October 2010. In just five years, MX has become one of the fastest-growing fintech companies and the DMM provider-of-choice to more than 550 banks and credit unions. MX is committed to building online and mobile financial software that entices consumers to increase their financial intelligence through a user experience that makes money management feel natural, simple and gratifying. As the industry is disrupted at a rapid pace, MX is committed to keeping financial institutions relevant and on the forefront of innovation.

How you build something is more important than what you’re building
Is your code simple, clean and maintainable? That’s the first question you should be asking rather than focusing on function. Studies have shown that up to 70% of the cost of software is incurred during maintenance. Readability, or the ease of reading source code, can promote software maintainability and is at the core of MX’s philosophy. In this 20-minute session, Brandon Dewitt, MX’s CTO, is discussing the fundamentals of building technology and how MX is delivering innovation and better code directly into the hands of engineers responsible for technology in their financial institutions.

Key takeaways:

  • Building a maintainable platform
  • Why style of code matters
  • Facilitating a smooth transition as you onboard new engineers

ScriptRock_FinDEVr2015_logoScriptRock is the brainchild of two longtime IT veterans who recognized a common problem inherent in IT and set out to build a solution. The result is a powerful configuration-integrity-monitoring platform in use by companies around the world. Thanks in part to the platform’s flexibility and scalability, ScriptRock has become integral to workflows in high finance, banking, healthcare, retail, and other industries.

Integrity in the age of devOps
The chips have fallen and devOps is here to stay, but many companies are still falling short in testing their infrastructure throughout the development cycle. Automation platforms like Chef and Puppet are great, but they’re not enough to guarantee systems integrity. See why continuous testing can mean the difference between profit and PR disaster.

Key takeaways:

  • Continuous delivery is great, but without proper testing, your project can quickly go off the rails.
  • How recent high-profile outages such as the NYSE, Apple’s App Store, and United Airlines could have been prevented.
  • Compliance monitoring doesn’t have to be a long, arduous, and expensive process.
