Alabama and Conduent Launch Chip-Enabled EBT Cards to Prevent Fraud

Image
  Alabama, in collaboration with Conduent, has introduced chip-enabled EBT cards statewide to enhance EBT fraud prevention by making benefit cards more secure against theft and skimming-based attacks for recipients of SNAP and TANF benefits. The new cards add embedded chip technology that allows beneficiaries to insert their card at point-of-sale terminals, significantly strengthening security compared with traditional magnetic-stripe-only cards. Under this initiative, the Alabama Department of Human Resources (DHR) has already mailed chip-enabled cards to EBT cardholders after a successful pilot rollout, and they are expected to arrive with beneficiaries in the coming days. The chip upgrade follows reports of stolen benefits in recent years and aims to protect users’ funds by reducing vulnerabilities associated with magnetic stripe transactions. The redesign of the new EBT cards includes an embedded chip for secure transactions, a three-digit security code and an expiration date...

Digimarc and Honeywell Launch Gift Card Fraud Prevention Partnership

Image
  The new gift card fraud prevention partnership between Digimarc and Honeywell was announced today as a strategic collaboration designed to strengthen the defenses of retailers against rising gift-card abuse. Under the agreement, Honeywell will integrate Digimarc’s next-generation on-scanner security software into its handheld retail scanners by early 2026, enabling real-time detection of tampered or fraudulent gift cards at the point of sale. This move aims to make it significantly harder for fraudsters to unscrupulously activate or redeem compromised cards, while offering retailers and consumers enhanced protection and a smoother checkout experience. Why This Collaboration Matters Escalating Gift Card Fraud Risks: The global gift card market is expanding rapidly, and with that growth come increased vulnerabilities. Fraudsters target gift cards because of their anonymity and widespread use, often executing tampering, cloning, or fraudulent activation schemes. Security Built int...

ServiceTrade Smart Scan Debuts to Accelerate Asset Capture for Contractors

Image
  ServiceTrade Smart Scan has been introduced as a new AI-powered nameplate scanning feature in the ServiceTrade mobile app, allowing technicians to snap a photo of an equipment nameplate and instantly capture accurate make, model, and serial-number information. This cuts asset-entry time from minutes to just seconds. The tool is designed to either create a complete record for a new unit at the correct location or if the unit already exists in the system quickly retrieve the existing record. The result: a dramatic reduction in manual typing, fewer errors from hard-to-read plates, and faster field workflows. What Makes Smart Scan a Game-Changer for Contractors Speed and Efficiency: With Smart Scan, asset-entry can take around 10 seconds roughly six times faster than the typical manual process (≈ 60 seconds). Improved Accuracy: By reading the nameplate directly and auto-populating data, the technology removes much of the human error that comes with manual transcription, especially...
