First Data Selects Trusteer to Help Financial Institutions Comply with new FFIEC Guidance for Online Banking Security

August 2011 by Marc Jacob

Trusteer, a provider of secure web access services, announced that First Data will make Trusteer Rapport and Trusteer Pinpoint available with the First Data Internet Banking solutions. First Data Corporation is a global leader in electronic commerce and payment processing. The company will refer Trusteer to its financial institution clients as a preferred solution provider for risk mitigation and to help enhance financial institution compliance with the new FFIEC guidance on Internet banking security.

Trusteer Rapport and Trusteer Pinpoint will help to protect Internet banking sessions from sophisticated Trojans like Zeus, SpyEye, Torpig, and Tatanga that can hijack a user’s browser to commit fraud. Trusteer Rapport provides an easy first step to fight fraud and an on-ramp for a phased deployment of additional Trusteer services that may be part of a financial institution’s layered security program, which is required by the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) new Internet authentication guidelines. Financial institutions will be evaluated under these new guidelines beginning in January 2012.

“After evaluating the market for a malware risk mitigation partner, we selected Trusteer for its state-of-the-art fraud prevention products and widespread adoption by the world’s leading banks,” said Cindi Lieblich, vice president of product development for First Data. “We are excited about our partnership with Trusteer because they offer end point protection, mobile protection, server based transaction anomaly detection, and risk analysis solutions in one integrated package.”

Trusteer is currently used by more than 150 leading financial organizations and enterprises in North America and Europe, and tens of millions of end users to protect their online banking, shopping and other communication against sophisticated malware attacks and fraud. The Trusteer Fraud Prevention Architecture provides intelligence-based security that is deployed at different layers of online banking processes. The Trusteer service can dynamically adapt to changing threats, deploys very quickly, scales to multiple online banking channels (such as business banking, retail banking and mobile banking), and does not require any changes in the way customers bank online.

“Financial institutions are recognizing that criminals are targeting and compromising their customers’ access devices to commit fraud against their payment processing systems,” said Mickey Boodaei, chief executive officer of Trusteer. “By choosing Trusteer as a secure web access partner, First Data can provide financial institutions with an integrated solution that helps to protect Internet banking sessions from the end-customer’s device all the way to its back-end systems.”
