Identity theft, online credit card fraud, phishing and other
e-scams are no longer a first-world phenomenon. At a recent IAMAI
workshop, it came out that India ranks 14th in phishing attacks.
The direct financial loss from these threats runs into crores. As
these attacks become more sophisticated, they could derail the
growth of online banking and commerce in India. Strong
authentication and e-signature solutions represent a major line of
defense against e-fraud. Network Computing, in association with
Vasco, one of the leading Internet security specialists in the
world, is organizing the Vasco Banking Summit 2007 on E-Fraud on
December 7, 2007 in Mumbai. The highlight is a debate featuring
India’s leading CIOs, security analysts and law enforcers
that will try to ascertain how ready India is for the coming online
banking and e-commerce boom.
