Build38 Mobile App Security Platform offers a unique and all-encompassing solution tailored specifically to the needs of SoftPOS apps. In contrast to conventional solutions that primarily concentrate on safeguarding mobile endpoints, Build38 takes a holistic approach to security, protecting not only the mobile app, but also its communications and back-end APIs as well.
SoftPOS, short for Software Point of Sale, represents a groundbreaking technology for payment apps. It transforms ordinary smartphones and tablets into secure payment terminals. Merchants can accept card payments simply by installing an app on their device, saving them the cost of specialized equipment. Customers can conveniently pay by tapping or inserting their cards, while the app secures the transaction.
This innovation benefits businesses and has expanded electronic payment to even the most remote areas where traditional systems are scarce. But while SoftPOS technology has made paying for goods and services more straightforward and quicker for everyone, it has also opened up a window of opportunity for hackers looking to steal data and commit fraud.
SoftPOS apps process sensitive financial transactions on common mobile devices, so hackers can exploit them to steal valuable payment data, which they use to commit fraud, like unauthorized purchases or identity theft.
The Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council has introduced the PCI MPoC standard, mandating stringent security measures such as encryption, key management, and user authentication to instill trust in the mobile payment ecosystem.
Adhering to industry standards such as PCI MPoC, PCI SPoC, and PCI CPoC is essential for apps that double as payment terminals. But these rules require robust security and data protection, making staying compliant an ongoing effort that demands resources and expertise.
