EMV - The Chips are Coming - Ken Givens U.S. Merchant Payment Solutions 11-15Ken Givens
The document discusses EMV chip technology for credit and debit cards. It explains that EMV was developed in the 1990s by Europay, Mastercard, and Visa to provide global interoperability standards for chip-based payments. EMV chip cards contain secure microprocessors that reduce fraud from counterfeiting, lost, and stolen cards compared to magnetic stripe cards. The U.S. is behind in adopting EMV, but liability shifts taking effect in October 2015 will motivate merchants and banks to upgrade terminals and cards to the more secure EMV standard to avoid fraud-related costs.

Financial Tech - St. Charles County Chambers Technology Committee presentatio...Ken Tucker
An Apple, a Chip and a Square walk into a bar… how does the bartender get paid?
Big change is coming Oct 1, 2015 – Make sure you have what you need to get paid.
The world of payment processing is going through some major changes – some of which are mandated by the government to happen before October – are you prepared? With all the changes in financial tech, explore different ways to accept payment. Topics include: EMV chips, the Square & similar products, NFC products (Apple iPay, Google Wallet, etc), using services such as PayPal, Stripe, or Authorize.net
EMV technology has been slowly rolling out in the US, but many merchants with EMV-capable terminals are not yet accepting chip cards. Some reasons for the delay include merchants not wanting to take on the costs and effort of training customers, or going through certification for upgraded terminals. However, as the liability shift has occurred, small businesses especially could see more chargebacks if criminals take advantage of merchants still accepting swipes. While EMV transactions take longer, the security benefits outweigh the potential costs of fraud. Merchants need to enable their EMV terminals to protect themselves now that they are liable for disputes.

Get Ready for EMV and Card Not Present FraudTransUnion
To view this webinar and others like it, visit iovation at: https://www.iovation.com/resources/webinars/get-ready-for-emv-and-card-not-present-fraud
Synopsis:
By October 2015, merchants in the United States will be subject to Europay, Mastercard, and Visa (EMV) standards. Liability for fraudulent purchases shifts to merchants at that time. This change will push many merchants to adopt the new standards to avoid risk. Although EMV is a good fraud tool for face-to-face transactions, it doesn't stop all fraud. In fact, after EMV implementation in other countries, a spike in card-not-present fraud always follows. Is your fraud prevention ready for that spike?
In this webinar you’ll learn:
How liability changes with EMV
What changes at the issuer, merchant and processor levels with EMV
Why card-not-present fraud is connected to EMV
How a device-based fraud solution stops card-not-present fraud in real-time
How shared global, cross-industry fraud intelligence can be leveraged to reduce risk
View this webcast to learn the latest in EMV adoption and effects of card not present (CNP) fraud and how cybercriminals are reacting to emerging market trends.
The document provides an overview and summary of recent regulatory updates related to payments law. It discusses proposed regulations for prepaid accounts from the CFPB, updates to check law and corporate account takeover issues under UCC Articles 3, 4 and 4A, EMV migration in the US, and proposed rules regarding payroll cards and student cards. It also includes summaries of various industry reports on EMV adoption rates and timelines in the US.
The document discusses the increase in chargebacks merchants have experienced since the EMV liability shift and provides tips to combat EMV chargebacks. It notes some merchants have seen a 50% increase in card-present chargebacks. While the reasons are unclear, experts believe either consumers are abusing the system or this increase is normal. The document then offers advice to merchants on properly processing EMV chip card transactions and avoiding manually entering card details to help reduce chargebacks.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity serverAntonios Katsarakis
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).

-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

HCL Notes and Domino License Cost Reduction in the World of DLAUpanagenda
Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-and-domino-license-cost-reduction-in-the-world-of-dlau/
The introduction of DLAU and the CCB & CCX licensing model caused quite a stir in the HCL community. As a Notes and Domino customer, you may have faced challenges with unexpected user counts and license costs. You probably have questions on how this new licensing approach works and how to benefit from it. Most importantly, you likely have budget constraints and want to save money where possible. Don’t worry, we can help with all of this!
We’ll show you how to fix common misconfigurations that cause higher-than-expected user counts, and how to identify accounts which you can deactivate to save money. There are also frequent patterns that can cause unnecessary cost, like using a person document instead of a mail-in for shared mailboxes. We’ll provide examples and solutions for those as well. And naturally we’ll explain the new licensing model.
Join HCL Ambassador Marc Thomas in this webinar with a special guest appearance from Franz Walder. It will give you the tools and know-how to stay on top of what is going on with Domino licensing. You will be able lower your cost through an optimized configuration and keep it low going forward.
These topics will be covered
- Reducing license cost by finding and fixing misconfigurations and superfluous accounts
- How do CCB and CCX licenses really work?
- Understanding the DLAU tool and how to best utilize it
- Tips for common problem areas, like team mailboxes, functional/test users, etc
- Practical examples and best practices to implement right away

After 7 Months of Liability Shift, Where Are
We With EMV?
● Processor focus has been on Retail due
to high $$ volumes
● Progress in Unattended (Parking) has
been slow
● Devices with specific processors have
been certified for Retail
● Devices with specific processors are
now undergoing certifications for
Unattended

Attended (Retail) vs Unattended
(Parking/Kiosks)
Attended far ahead in EMV certifications over
unattended
● Processor interest – looking at higher risk $$
● Device availability (unattended) – not all
devices were ready for certification in October
2015, some are still not ready…
● Big retailers were driving the priority
● Progress has been slow overall for attended
and unattended
12. dave.witts@creditcall.com www.creditcall.com/emv-migration
Reasons For Slow Uptake
● Processors not ready / cannot cope with
volumes of certifications
● Certifications taking longer than expected
● Processors have been slow to respond to
questions during certification
● Devices not ready to be certified
● High cost to switch over (hardware and
certification)
13. dave.witts@creditcall.com www.creditcall.com/emv-migration
Focus on Unattended (Parking) For Slow
Uptake
● EMV certifications with US processors
basically non-existent at this time
● 1st set of devices are starting
certification now with mid-year
estimated completion
● Manufacturers still looking at what
devices make sense in their equipment,
not many choices to have an off-the-
shelf certification
14. dave.witts@creditcall.com www.creditcall.com/emv-migration
EMV Specification Limiting Some of The
Features That Exist in Parking Today
● Cost to convert/upgrade is high
● Overall transaction time is slowed down due
to interaction with the customer (the swipe
is out!)
● Device availability to start certifications
● Frustration on not having a solution today
due to customer demand
● Mix of devices that are available to choose
from
● An EMV-ready device is NOT an EMV
certified device. Each device has to be
certified with specific processors
16. dave.witts@creditcall.com www.creditcall.com/emv-migration
Select an EMV Card Reader –
3 Months
● A card reader is where a large part of an
EMV transaction takes place through a
complex dialogue between chip card and
reader
● Integrators must invest time in learning
about EMV (e.g. Application Selection,
Data Authentication, Online Processing
and Issuer Script Processing), transaction
flows, transaction logic and exception
handling when an inevitable error occurs
in the transaction
17. dave.witts@creditcall.com www.creditcall.com/emv-migration
Processor Interfaces and EMV Messages –
6 Months
● Different processors require every interface
to be modified to support the new EMV
data fields and process flows
● Most interfaces are based on legacy code
developed many years ago, the addition of
new features such as EMV becomes an
increasingly difficult task
● Processors will have scaled their integration
support sufficiently to cope with the mass
of other integrators who will be following
the same path
18. dave.witts@creditcall.com www.creditcall.com/emv-migration
Card Brand Certifications –
4 months
● Once processor interfaces have been updated, the
complex task of end-to-end testing and
certification begins
● M-TIP/ADVT/AEIPS/DPAS are the 4 different
testing types required
● Processors have not been able to cope with
the volume of certifications required before
the October 2015 Liability Shift and continue
to struggle now
● This is NOT a one-time process – it must be
repeated every three years when the EMV Kernel
certification on the card reader expires.
19. dave.witts@creditcall.com www.creditcall.com/emv-migration
Terminal Management System –
3 Months
● It is essential that any EMV solution
deployed has access to a TMS
platform for efficient and timely
deployment of updates
● Without a TMS platform, there is a
risk of having card readers without
current software or the latest
configuration
20. dave.witts@creditcall.com www.creditcall.com/emv-migration
What’s next for EMV in the Parking
Market?
● Certifications will become available in Q2 2016
● Most processor certifications should be
complete by the end of 2016
● Additional devices will be certified by
end of 2016 – providing product choice
and a more “off the shelf” approach
● When looking at a “Certified” EMV solution
ensure you are not locked into a specific
processor, keep flexibility to change processors
as the rates can change and reduce your costs
