Vipps is the provider behind Norway-based payment system BankAxept and it recently channels Inside Secure to create a protection system for its mobile transactions. All of the firm's card and mobile contactless payment methods are now protected by two different elements -- Inside Secure's own Code protection service and the Whitebox system. Inside Secure's service secures applications and uses its tools to identify any threats that may occur during the transaction.
Bjørn Skjelbred of Vipps announces that they see a long-lasting partner through their work with Inside Secure, especially in their collaborative dedication to providing the strongest security for the nation. He states, "It’s clear that Inside Secure offers not only the technology but also the knowledge needed to work with demanding financial institutions."
