There have been significant changes in customer security, data privacy and authentic account protection in recent months, and industry experts provided answers for how to secure customer trust with a new level of awareness and insight.
“2021 changed the way attackers focused,” said Michael A. Davis, CEO, InClaro Group, Inc. “They’re now increasing the level of technology they use, just like we are. Whereas we’re looking at things like machine learning and AI to improve our data analytics, so are they. It is a very targeted, aggressive campaign now by these organizations because there’s real money at risk here.”
Technology experts also offered a roadmap for selecting what technology really matters, how to design an ecommerce vision that helps distributors bring customers through the sales process faster and more efficiently, and why a shareable shopping cart can be the building block for helping a new distributor build a booming business.
“If you can see you’re in growth mode and forecasting as such, now is better than later. Investing in technology is insurance against a company’s success,” said Reuben Cook, Consulting Partner, Squire.
