This document outlines 10 measures that online merchants can take to reduce credit card fraud. These include geolocating users by IP address to check for high fraud locations, comparing billing addresses and IP addresses, checking for high risk countries, anonymous email addresses, proxy servers, PO boxes, invalid phone numbers/zip codes, issuing bank country matches, and directly verifying suspicious credit cards with issuing banks. The key recommendation is to use FraudLabs Pro to help implement these checks and better manage credit card fraud risks for online transactions.

Why React Native as a Strategic Advantage for Startup Innovation.pdfayushiqss
Do you know that React Native is being increasingly adopted by startups as well as big companies in the mobile app development industry? Big names like Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest have already integrated this robust open-source framework.
In fact, according to a report by Statista, the number of React Native developers has been steadily increasing over the years, reaching an estimated 1.9 million by the end of 2024. This means that the demand for this framework in the job market has been growing making it a valuable skill.
But what makes React Native so popular for mobile application development? It offers excellent cross-platform capabilities among other benefits. This way, with React Native, developers can write code once and run it on both iOS and Android devices thus saving time and resources leading to shorter development cycles hence faster time-to-market for your app.
Let’s take the example of a startup, which wanted to release their app on both iOS and Android at once. Through the use of React Native they managed to create an app and bring it into the market within a very short period. This helped them gain an advantage over their competitors because they had access to a large user base who were able to generate revenue quickly for them.

In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.
First Steps with Globus Compute Multi-User EndpointsGlobus
In this presentation we will share our experiences around getting started with the Globus Compute multi-user endpoint. Working with the Pharmacology group at the University of Auckland, we have previously written an application using Globus Compute that can offload computationally expensive steps in the researcher's workflows, which they wish to manage from their familiar Windows environments, onto the NeSI (New Zealand eScience Infrastructure) cluster. Some of the challenges we have encountered were that each researcher had to set up and manage their own single-user globus compute endpoint and that the workloads had varying resource requirements (CPUs, memory and wall time) between different runs. We hope that the multi-user endpoint will help to address these challenges and share an update on our progress here.
SOCRadar Research Team: Latest Activities of IntelBrokerSOCRadar
The European Union Agency for Law Enforcement Cooperation (Europol) has suffered an alleged data breach after a notorious threat actor claimed to have exfiltrated data from its systems. Infamous data leaker IntelBroker posted on the even more infamous BreachForums hacking forum, saying that Europol suffered a data breach this month.
The alleged breach affected Europol agencies CCSE, EC3, Europol Platform for Experts, Law Enforcement Forum, and SIRIUS. Infiltration of these entities can disrupt ongoing investigations and compromise sensitive intelligence shared among international law enforcement agencies.
However, this is neither the first nor the last activity of IntekBroker. We have compiled for you what happened in the last few days.

How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.

1. 10 Measures to
Reduce Credit Card
Fraud for Internet
Merchants
https://www.fraudlabspro.com
2. Introduction
• There are now companies that
specialize in spam and other
illegal marketing techniques,
such as phishing and hacking,
that take advantage of every
opportunity to make money.
• In addition to this threat, there
are amateur scam artists around
the world who use the Internet to
obtain credit card and financial
information for the purpose of
fraud.
• We would like to introduce 10
preventative measures that
merchants can take in order to
minimize credit card fraud.
3. Geolocation by IP
address
• Knowing the buyers geographic
information can help to prevent
fraud.
• Geolocation tech provides the
absolute geographic location of
orders through the IP address, it
can identify the location with the
highest fraud probability.
• FraudLabs Pro can keep the
cost of authentication down as
you can target the authentication
toward the most probably
geographic locations for fraud.
4. Comparison of the IP
address country with the
billing address country
• IP address is a unique network
identifier to a user’s computer.
• To make sure the IP address
country and the billing address
are the same.
• For example, if the billing and
shipping address are the same,
but the IP address is from others
country, this will require closer
scrutiny, and will often trigger
anti-fraud precautions.
5. 5
Check whether the
country is a “high risk”
country
• Always require closer inspection
for the orders that being shipped
to an international address
• Pay more attention if the card or
the shipping address is in an
area prone to credit card fraud.
6. Check whether a free or
anonymous e-mail address
was used
• Be aware that online buyers using free
anonymous e-mail providers
• There is a much higher incidence of fraud
coming from free email services than from paid
service providers.
6
7. Check whether an anonymous
proxy server was used to place
the order
• A anonymous proxy servers allow internet user to
hide their actual IP address.
• Using a proxy server is to remain anonymous or to
avoid being detected.
• FraudLabs Pro provides a hassle free method to
keep the always up-to-date anonymous proxy server
list as web service.
7
8. Check whether the mailing
address is a mailbox or ship-
forward service
• Fraudsters prefer to stay untraceable but they still
need to collect physical merchandise
• Never send merchandise to a public mailbox
because the recipient’s physical location and
identity cannot be detected
8
9. Check whether the phone
number is valid and located
within the correct ZIP code
9
• Discover those invalid zipcode or mismatch
between the zipcode and area code will produce
fraud rates that are significantly higher than usual
10. Compare the credit card issuing
bank’s country with the billing
address country
• Make sure the issuing country and billing address
country are the same because minor banks may
not have rigorous identification procedures
11. Call the credit card issuing
bank to verify the validity of
credit card
• If have any suspicions about the order, you can
call the issuing bank and ask to confirm the
general account details
• Make sure the card is not stolen
12. Request more identification if in
doubt
• Merchants should call them for verification
through phone or request a photo ID to be faxed
if they have any doubts
13. Summary
• Every merchant should be
aware of online credit card fraud,
although it is something that can
never be completely eliminated,
but rather something that must
be managed.
• Using FraudLabs Pro can
greatly reduce credit card fraud
