A #national retail federation attorney said Wednesday that an updated #fbi #warning on chip card vulnerabilities waters down the need for #pin #security.
The FBI on Friday posted a revised warning about vulnerabilities with new chip-embedded credit cards that deletes language about the need to use PIN security, which had appeared in the FBI’s original version last week.
Mallory Duncan, general counsel for the National Retail Federation, characterized the revised FBI warning as ineffective in describing the need for PIN (Personal Identification Number) security.
