In particular, nsKnox provides innovative data security and corporate payment protection solutions. These include a breakthrough Cooperative Cyber Security (CCS) technology.
The technology is based on a new model which combines the individual cyber security capabilities of a number of secured organisations and networks. This makes hacks significantly more challenging than just penetrating a single organisation.
As a result of the deal KPMG Israel will be global distributor and service provider of KPMG Secure Payments.
The offering combines KPMG’s compliance, controls, and cyber security consulting with nsKnox’s technology. The aim is to detect and prevent payment fraud in real time.
