SCHREMS II\, PCI DSS and others)\, and their potential overlaps. \nIt will also give an appreciation of the various types of licenses and permissions (and the relevant regulatory bodies) that need to be obtained by the various players in the ecosystems. Where possible\, it will also give an overview of relevant regulations outside of Europe. \nPayments 101 (or similar experience) is a prerequisite\, as payments fundamentals and terminology knowledge is assumed. We highly recommend attending our Payments 101 course beforehand if you don’t have enough relevant experience in the field of Regulation. \nThe course combines presenter-led sessions and thought-provoking videos.

SUMMARY:E‑commerce Fraud in the UK: Why 3DS‑Era Controls Are No Longer Enough And What Needs to Come Next
DESCRIPTION:UK e-commerce fraud continues to rise despite the widespread adoption of Strong Customer Authentication and increasingly sophisticated 3-D Secure (3DS) controls. While issuers and schemes have invested heavily in enhanced risk scoring within the authentication flow\, fraudsters have continued to evolve. \nIn this session\, hosted by G+D Netcetera\, we will explore why reacting at the 3DS stage alone is no longer sufficient to stop fraud losses\, operational burden\, and customer friction from escalating. Drawing on real-world issuer perspectives and joined by invited speakers from Mastercard and TigerGraph\, we will discuss the limitations of siloed controls and the growing need to prevent fraud earlier and across channels\, not just within individual transactions. \nJoin us to explore: \n\nHow online fraud has changed in the UK in recent years\, from classic card-not-present fraud to large-scale card testing\, BIN attacks\, social engineering\, and coordinated cross-channel crime.\nHow today’s 3DS countermeasures\, such as issuer-centric risk models\, consortium intelligence\, and BIN-attack scores\, have significantly improved fraud detection but still struggle to identify emerging social-engineering-driven fraud patterns.\nWhat needs to change next\, enabling timely and secure data sharing across banks and moving from isolated risk decisions to collaborative\, ecosystem-wide fraud prevention.\nHow cross-channel intelligence can help shift the industry from reacting to fraud to preventing it proactively.\n\n  \n  \nSpeakers: \n
