The Evolution of Payment Cryptography

Verisec event in partnership with Thales

Stockholm, Sweden – 3rd June 2025

Overview

On Tuesday, the 3rd of June, 2025, Verisec and Thales – Imperva are pleased to host a morning event at Berns Salonger in Stockholm – “The Evolution of Payment Cryptography”

In a broader context, only weeks ago, Sweden was impacted by a targeted DDoS attack that lasted several hours and indirectly affected banks and payments. A few days later, Spain and Portugal were hit by a massive power outage that affected the digital lives of millions, including, of course, the payments infrastructure of the countries.

In light of these events, let us look at this bigger picture, which is relevant for us all, and understand what we can do to protect ourselves at different levels. We have invited our partner Thales and special keynote speakers to cover some of these topics.

Thales brings us topics such as:

  • Protection at the Digital Edge
  • Unified Defence with Real-Time DDoS Resilience
  • Live DDoS demo in action with unique 3 seconds SLA to mitigate against any DDoS attack

Verisec dives into more detail on the future of payments cryptography and what quantum computing holds in store for our industry:

  • The changing payments cryptographic roadmap – The need for agility
  • Practical tips for advanced payment cryptography
  • Understand the benefits of hybrid cryptographic services – on-premises and in the Cloud
  • Hands-on demonstration of Verisec 10XPAY – with seamless compliance and integration

We will present how Verisec is innovating payment cryptography with its “10XPAY” Cloud and managed services, which can co-exist perfectly with our customers’ current infrastructure.

Expect practical insights and live demonstrations.
