JCB is a major global payment brand and leading credit card issuer and acquirer in Japan.
RSA FraudAction is designed to find and shut down phishing attacks and other activity perpetrated by online fraudsters. It has been adopted by more than 320 companies worldwide, including many large financial institutions who deal with the same challenges as JCB.
RSA's anti-fraud analysts reduce the lifetime of a phishing attack from about 115 hours to an average of five hours, claims the vendor.
Fraudulent activity
"We believe having the innovative RSA FraudAction service working on our behalf to find and shut down fraudulent activity targeting our business online is an essential measure of security," said Masahiro Ogushi, senior vice president of media and channel management department, JCB.
Added RSA Japan's president Osamu Yamano: "There is a large amount of online criminal activity in Japan, such as fake websites and e-mails designed to trick customers into giving up passwords, account numbers and other personally identifiable information. We are pleased to be working with JCB to help protect their customers against online fraud through the successful use of RSA FraudAction."
