FinTech giant Verifone selects Lacework platform to help secure cloud infrastructure

Payment solution provider, Verifone, has selected the Lacework Polygraph Data Platform as the company moves to a cloud native DevSecOps model.

Verifone is an electronic payment and Point of Sale technology provider to a number of retailers, including Spar and B&Q.

Its platform processes 12+ billion transactions annually, accounting for nearly 46% of the world’s non-cash payments. Given this scale, the company needed a dedicated security platform built for cloud native environments.

“With Lacework's behaviorial ML led approach, we'll dramatically reduce security alerting while automating key audit data delivery so that we can focus on the secure development of new products for our customers. The Polygraph Data Platform will completely transform the way our security team works,” says Luke Clinch, Global Director of Infrastructure, Verifone.

Verifone will tap the cloud native application protection platform (CNAPP) capabilities of the Polygraph Data Platform.

This will enable it to eliminate multiple point tools while increasing its ability to identify and eliminate vulnerabilities across multi-cloud configuration, infrastructure-as-code (IaC), Kubernetes, containers, applications, and their dependencies.

The Verifone security team will also take advantage of continuous posture and compliance assessments from the Polygraph Platform to fully automate audit and compliance processes.

“As companies modernise their infrastructure, it’s imperative they have a security partner that can innovate alongside them, helping extend the capabilities of their human teams to further improve and secure their service for customers,” says Andreas Schneider, EMEA Field CISO, Lacework.
