Project:

M-Commerce Platform Security Audit

Scope:

An end-to-end technical design review from a security perspective of the systems that comprised the M-Commerce Prepaid Management System, which included the application program interfaces, over-the-air (OTA) functionality and compatibility with SIM manufacturers. The audit included an evaluation of the entire manual, semi-automated and automated processes, procedures and policies that surround the M-commerce prepaid service, including the fraud and security reporting in place for the identification, analysis and investigation of suspected losses.

Deliverable:

Management briefing and management report detailing the findings and recommendations regarding the M-commerce prepaid system design and its proposed implementation. The consultancy included comprehensive detail on each weakness identified and the corresponding corrective action required to mitigate each of these risks.

Client Benefits:

The client was able to benefit from Præsidium’s in-depth experience in telecoms-banking relationships and M-commerce platforms, to enable the implementation of a number of key recommendations to enhance the service’s security prior to launch.
