Mobile Payment Software - Presentment
Security Card Holder’s responsibility
Card company’s Cardholder Agreement
No industry standards for digital wallets solutions
Wallet application security?
Wallet interoperability?
Multiple payment instruments in a single wallet?- Which one is “on top”?
What about release of personal data ?

Mobile Payment Software - Interoperability
Too many protocols- IP over 3G/4G- Bluetooth- NFC
Too few “true” standards
Solutions tend to be monolithic- Chicken and egg problems with adoption- Lack of compatibility with other solutions- Security models vary greatly in maturity

OK for PADSS
Category 1- Payment application operates only on a PTS-approved mobile
device.
Category 2- Payment application meets ALL of the following criteria:
- Payment application is only provided as a complete solution “bundled” with a specific mobile device by the vendor
- Underlying mobile device is purpose-built (by design or by constraint) with a single function of performing payment acceptance
- Payment application, when installed on the “bundled” mobile device (as assessed by the Payment Application Qualified Security Assessor (PA-QSA) and explicitly documented in the payment application’s Report on Valication (ROV), provides an environment which allows the merchant to meet and maintain PCI DSS compliance.

Visa Mobile Acceptance Best Practices
Consumer Mobile Device: - Any electronic handheld device (e.g., smart phone, tablet or PDA)
that is not solely dedicated to payment acceptance and that has the ability to wirelessly communicate account data (via GSM, GPRS, CDMA, etc.) for transaction processing.
Mobile Payment Acceptance Solution: - Consists of mobile payment application, a consumer mobile device
and, where account data is electronically read from a payment card, a hardware accessory capable of reading account data.
- Solutions that do not electronically read account data may not be acceptable in all territories or may face some restrictions. Clients must review local Visa Operating Regulations prior to providing mobile payment acceptance solutions to merchants.

MasterCard PADSS Mandate
Effective 1 July 2012, MasterCard will revise the MasterCard SDP Program Standards to require all merchants and Service Providers that use third party-provided payment applications to only use those applications that are compliant with the Payment Card Industry Payment Application Data Security Standard (PCI PA-DSS), as applicable.
The applicability of the PCI PA-DSS to third party-provided payment applications is defined in the PCI PA-DSS Program Guide.
In addition, MasterCard will establish a new PA-DSS compliance validation requirement for Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 merchants as well as Level 1 and Level 2 Service Providers.

Mobile Payment Security Testing
Current solutions choose time-to market over security- E.g. Square – currently no encryption in readers
The usual “web” tools don’t do it
Much more technical and specialized than the web
A must- Complexity breeds security problems- Multiple protocols, devices, networks- Good penetration testing by experts

Apple “iWallet” patent – Parental Controls
Granted on Tuesday March 6- A method, comprising: defining one or more rules using a handheld
electronic device, wherein the one or more rules establish restrictions on transactions made using a financial account associated with an account holder other than the user of the handheld electronic device; and applying the one or more rules to the financial account.

Summary
Poor definition of marketplace- Hard to define security solutions and standards
Standards don’t fully apply – or protect
Card brand mandates cover what the way they would like to see the industry- Not the way the industry is
Risk based assessments and penetration testing poor in this area- Not enough experts
