Refund Fraud-as-a-Service: What it means for eCommerce businesses

eCommerce is a trillion-dollar industry. But as the popularity of online shopping grows, so does the risk of refund fraud, which now costs businesses more than $25 billion every year. Refunds are a standard cost of retail — especially in eCommerce. But online shopping makes it much more difficult for businesses to investigate and verify valid refund demands from customers.

How to protect your business from remote work security risks

The Covid-19 pandemic caused a seismic shift in remote working practices. Before the pandemic, 34% of US employees worked remotely at least one day a week. Now, as we emerge from the pandemic, 35% of Americans work from home full-time — with a further 23% able to work remotely part-time. This equates to approximately 92 million remote workers in the US alone. But this rise in remote working is causing significant corporate cybersecurity issues.

ReCAPTCHA 101: Is it the best way to block bots in 2022?

Bots now make up more than 43% of all internet traffic. It’s a growing problem — there are now almost twice as many bad bots as good bots. That’s why site administrators use programs like reCAPTCHA to block bots from accessing their websites, apps, and APIs. Bots aren’t a new problem. Back in 1950, Alan Turing created the Turing Test: a game designed to test a program’s ability to pass as a human.
