WHY SOURCE DEFENSE ACQUIRER PROTECT
Protect all the merchants in your portfolio with a single solution
Shield your merchant portfolio from digital skimming attacks with a scalable solution that protects them while providing you with full portfolio risk visibility.
The threat is growing
Digital skimming happens every single day – but most merchants still have no visibility or prevention solutions in place. Relying on each merchant to independently deploy, configure, and manage a security solution creates inconsistent coverage and leaves gaps across your portfolio.
Manual adoption is unrealistic
For merchant acquirers with thousands of customers, it’s impossible to ensure that each merchant has the appropriate client-side security controls in place. Without a scalable approach, security posture varies from merchant to merchant, increasing risk of data exposure and non-compliance across the entire portfolio.
What's at stake
Without consistent client-side protection across the portfolio, merchant acquirers face increased fraud risk, greater PCI DSS compliance exposure, increased card brand scrutiny, and potential damage to merchant trust. Ignoring this problem won’t make it go away.
