Interview with Dr. Karen Paullet
Faculty Member, Information Technology at American Public University
Having your credit card information stolen is a bad experience that thousands of people just recently endured. With the Target breach still being investigated and repaired it’s no wonder people are skeptical about using their cards for online transactions. There are, however, ways for consumers and businesses to protect themselves from future attacks. In this podcast Dr. Karen Paullet goes into detail about the different safeguards a business can put in place to protect against future attacks. She also dives into detail about the way in which an IT group can ensure information security, and look for key holes to prevent these types of incidents.
