Exploring Payment Platforms - ISO 20022 and ISO 8583PECB
Have you thought about the process of communication in the financial institutions? On this webinar, we go over the importance of standards ISO 20022 and ISO 8583 and how it can help financial institution to create reports that are useful to all interested parties.
Main points covered:
• ISO 20022 and its importance on the financial communication.
• ISO 8583 and its usage on the most credit and debit card transaction.
• How can these two standards leverage to effectively manage the financial transactions and data?
Presenter:
This webinar was presented by Orlando Olumide Odejide. He is a PECB Certified Trainer and an experienced Enterprise Architect and Programme Director working on various technology solutions. His expertise spans to various ISO standard such as ISO 27001, ISO 20000 and ISO 22301, COBIT, CMMI, TOGAF, PRINCE2, ITIL.

This Presentation gives an Overview of the Bitcoin Technology used today to make online transactions possible which are very secure, fast and tax-free. This shows the future scope of the Bitcoins.
The demand for embedded finance is rising and Banking as a Service (BaaS) with APIs and strong risk and compliance capability is offering bundled service, generally white-labeled or cobranded services for non banks to serve their customers.
To increase the security of mobile payments, many payment schemes nowadays apply a technology called tokenization.
Tokenization is the process of replacing an existing payment card number with a surrogate value (token).
This token is used during a payment transaction, keeping the original card number safe.
A Token Service Provider (TSP) is an entity within the payments ecosystem that generates and manages tokens.
The TSP maps the original card number with the payment tokens and stores this safely in a token vault.
Often these tokens can only be used in a specific domain such as a merchant’s online website or channel, limiting the risk even further.
A TSP manages the entire lifecycle of payment credentials including: Token Requestor Authorization Host
1. Tokenization: Replaces the PAN with a payment token.
2. De-tokenization: Converts the token back to the PAN using the token vault.
3. Token vault: Establishes and maintains the payment token to PAN mapping.
4. Domain management: Adds additional security by restricting tokens to be used within specific (retail) channels or domains.
5. Identification and verification: Ensures that the payment token is replacing a PAN that was legitimately used by the token requestor.
6. Clearing and settlement: Ad-hoc de-tokenization during clearing and settlement process.
Issuers, acquirers and merchants that wish to offer mobile and/or digital payments to customers can become a TSP.
Becoming your own TSP gives full control over the tokenization process: creation, storage, issuance and management.
By having your own TSP, you are in full control of digital payments by issuing tokens directly without third party intervention.
By using a third party TSP from the payment schemes, issuers need to integrate with each payment scheme.
Benefits of having you own TSP:
1. Reduce long term costs: no additional TSP fees from the payment schemes.
2. On-us transactions: save on transaction fees when you are the issuing as well as the acquiring bank.
3. Banks retain their privacy because data and roadmaps do not have to be shared with the schemes.
4. Keep track of customer payment behavior to gain valuable insight and be able to offer personalized services.
5. Expand to multiple use cases. Host Card Emulation Embedded SE Internet: Card-Not-Present Value added services / non-card payments
6. Have your own strategy and be future proof in order to stay competitive.

Digital redefinition of banking banking transformationDraup
The increase in the number of digital use cases in the banking and financial services industry has led to the emergence of newer digital hotspots in the US. States such as Minnesota, North Carolina, Texas, and California have a high density of mature talent specializing in these digital cases. These digital use cases have also given rise to new hotspots in neighbouring states such as Iowa, Arizona, and Ohio. Bank of America, Wells Fargo, and JP Morgan Chase have capitalized on this rapid digitalization to create solutions in anti-money laundering, digital wealth management, information security, cloud technology.
Analysing the Digital Maturity of Top US Banks
The digital maturity of banks and financial institutions has been measured by their competency in innovation which includes their competitive intensity and growth potential and assessing their capabilities in terms of talent scalability and maturity of skills in new age technologies. By these parameters, firms such as Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Citi, and Capital One have identified as digital leaders while Union Bank, First Republic Bank, HSBC US have been relatively slower in the digital race.
Case-by-Case Analysis of Banking Transformation
Bank of America:
Bank of America has over 14 digital centres with over 76% of the digital talent based out of centres located in the US. The 4,000+ digital workforce is involved in functions such as app development, analytics, security, and cloud. Bank of America is one of the few leading banks looking to increase the digital capabilities of all its bank branches through interactive systems that need very little human intervention. Some branches are also fully automated equipped with an interactive teller machine and a video conferencing room.
Citi Group:
Citi is taking cues from its innovation labs that are involved in developing cutting-edge solutions such as beacons. The firm’s 3,500+ digital talent pool is predominantly based out of North America. The bank’s smart branches are equipped with interactive media walls that display local weather, stock information, and financial updates. Citi announced their partnership with Nasdaq which was formed to create payment systems that use DLT (Distributed Ledger Technology) to record payments.
Wells Fargo:
The firm’s large 7,500+ digital workforce is largely consolidated in the United States with sporadic distribution in India as well. The firm has 15 digital centres with only 2 of them located outside the US i.e. in Hyderabad, and Bengaluru. Over 28% of digital talent is involved in new-age solutions such as RPA, Blockchain, IoT and AI.

PCI Descoping: How to Reduce Controls and Streamline ComplianceTokenEx
Descoping a data environment by decreasing the amount of PCI traversing it is one of the simplest and most effective ways of complying with the PCI DSS. By outsourcing the handling of sensitive payment information to security experts, organizations can reduce compliance and operational costs while minimizing the risk and liability associated with a potential data breach. Tokenization is especially effective at this due to its ability to remove sensitive data from an environment and store it in a secure, cloud-based token vault.
In this deck you will learn:
PCI controls for organizations that handle card information
Which controls can be removed from scope
How cloud-based tokenization outsources PCI compliance to a tokenization provider
Additional strategies and best practices for achieving PCI compliance

The recent batch of mega retailers that have been compromised, including Target, Neiman Marcus and Michaels, has revealed just how vulnerable payment systems are. Even with sophisticated tools, strong security policies, updated regulatory requirements such as PCI v3 and other measures to mitigate these attacks, hackers are still able to compromise the systems by taking advantage of inherent vulnerabilities in payment systems.
In this webcast, payment systems expert Slava Gomzin, author of Hacking Point of Sale: Payment Application Secrets, Threats, and Solutions, will show us how retailers such as Target were compromised, what went wrong, failures in PCI to address all vulnerabilities and how these types of breaches can be prevented in the future.
Webcast participants will also receive a free sample chapter of Slava’s book on “Payment Application Architecture,” which provides a detailed overview of how payment systems work, protocols and their weaknesses.

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.
Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?
Innovating Inference - Remote Triggering of Large Language Models on HPC Clus...Globus
Large Language Models (LLMs) are currently the center of attention in the tech world, particularly for their potential to advance research. In this presentation, we'll explore a straightforward and effective method for quickly initiating inference runs on supercomputers using the vLLM tool with Globus Compute, specifically on the Polaris system at ALCF. We'll begin by briefly discussing the popularity and applications of LLMs in various fields. Following this, we will introduce the vLLM tool, and explain how it integrates with Globus Compute to efficiently manage LLM operations on Polaris. Attendees will learn the practical aspects of setting up and remotely triggering LLMs from local machines, focusing on ease of use and efficiency. This talk is ideal for researchers and practitioners looking to leverage the power of LLMs in their work, offering a clear guide to harnessing supercomputing resources for quick and effective LLM inference.
Providing Globus Services to Users of JASMIN for Environmental Data AnalysisGlobus
JASMIN is the UK’s high-performance data analysis platform for environmental science, operated by STFC on behalf of the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). In addition to its role in hosting the CEDA Archive (NERC’s long-term repository for climate, atmospheric science & Earth observation data in the UK), JASMIN provides a collaborative platform to a community of around 2,000 scientists in the UK and beyond, providing nearly 400 environmental science projects with working space, compute resources and tools to facilitate their work. High-performance data transfer into and out of JASMIN has always been a key feature, with many scientists bringing model outputs from supercomputers elsewhere in the UK, to analyse against observational or other model data in the CEDA Archive. A growing number of JASMIN users are now realising the benefits of using the Globus service to provide reliable and efficient data movement and other tasks in this and other contexts. Further use cases involve long-distance (intercontinental) transfers to and from JASMIN, and collecting results from a mobile atmospheric radar system, pushing data to JASMIN via a lightweight Globus deployment. We provide details of how Globus fits into our current infrastructure, our experience of the recent migration to GCSv5.4, and of our interest in developing use of the wider ecosystem of Globus services for the benefit of our user community.

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.
