Dear
Friends of SecurityStockWatch.com,
“For the
past 20 years, we’ve processed billions of transactions without
exposing consumers’ bank routing transit or personal account
numbers or address information. Payment data is exchanged within
a secure network, and funds are typically settled via the Fed wire.
Here’s how it works: The consumer registers payments to his
or her billers. Those billers are then compared against registered
billers in our database prior to a financial transaction being processed.
We push the credit through to the billers without exposing the consumer’s
private bank account information, just his or her name and the account
number with that particular biller. Now, when it comes to such tactics
as phishing and pharming, the best protection is consumer education.
MasterCard RPPS has long supported consumer education with a series
of programs and materials that help our customer financial institutions
and billers provide a coherent and effective education for their
customers.” These are among the comments and observations
by Mr. Michael Foye, Vice President, Sales and New Business Development,
MasterCard RPPS® Systems, MasterCard Worldwide. Please see the
entire interview here: http://www.securitystockwatch.com/Interviews/in_Boardroom_MC.html.

And,
Mr. Kirk MacDowell, Residential Marketing, www.gesecurity.com/smartcom,
(NYSE: GE ) told us “Home Security 2.0 is one part of our
new interactive initiatives that is taking home security and related
functionality to exciting new levels, leveraging the power of the
Web to afford homeowners a range of new capabilities. Now homeowners
can go beyond traditional
home alarm system offerings to, not only, remotely monitor their
home's security, but also monitor a whole range of additional functions
and activities. With this interactive initiative, homeowners can
now leverage Web accessibility to determine when the kids get home
from school, whether the dog is misbehaving, see who went into the
liquor cabinet, and even address visitors at the front door as if
they were home while they are at another location. This integrated
solution will provide greatly enhanced peace-of-mind and enable
users to stay connected to their homes, families and properties
when away. This is good news for homeowners and our partners.”
