Users on the move – that is the message as the key players in the digital payments industry converge on Paris to enjoy the 29th edition of CARTES SECURE CONNEXIONS.

When it comes to opportunities for networking and experiencing the industry’s latest innovations first hand, the event is unrivalled – and CARTES 2014 got off to a stunning start last night at the Salle Wagram in the heart of the French capital with the SESAMES Awards.

Eleven companies were honoured for their efforts in the field during a gala evening which saw the cream of the sector given due recognition. Trophies were awarded in areas as diverse as contactless travel payments, government identification systems and component testing.

Syniverse will be particularly thrilled as its new fraud solution was recognised for its versatility when it triumphed in two categories.

‘Users on the move’, the theme of CARTES 2014, was embraced by many of the solutions - and over the next three days, visitors to CARTES 2014 will see many more examples of excellence in this dynamic field…

    The rise of cybercrime is starting to impact tolling concessions, as Colin Sowman discovers. Yahoo’s revelation that it has taken two years to discover that it had suffered a security breach resulting in hackers stealing the details of 500 million users is shocking - although the hackers only gained access to users’ names, contact details and encrypted passwords.

    Increasing the capability of automatic number plate recognition should go hand-in-hand with efforts to ensure number plates' integrity, says the ESVA's Viv Nicholas. Before we apply increasingly sophisticated technology to Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR), says the European Secure Vehicle Alliance's (ESVA's) executive director Viv Nicholas, there is a lot we can do to make the task of vehicle recognition simpler by addressing issues relating to the number plate itself.
