Payment Security Conference 2023
27th-28th June 2023, Manchester
(with optional pre-event dinner on 26th June 2023)
Payment Security is more than PCI DSS. If PCI DSS is protecting the card holder (and in turn the card issuer), how are you protecting your institution from data compromise or financial loss and the resulting reputational fall out?
The WPM Payment Security Conference is the leading Payment Security event for the higher education sector. Industry experts will share their insights on the latest threats emerging in the landscape, how to embed payment security into business-as-usual, payment security implementation best practice and more.
Agenda details to be released soon but to give a flavour of the event replay videos and audio files from the 2022 conference are available on our Client Resources Portal.
Network with peers to share experiences of how to get buy in and resource to better understand your payment security requirements, and leave with the knowledge and tools you’ll need to ensure you are proactively moving beyond PCI DSS.
Who Should Attend
Payment Security is no longer a compliance box that needs to be ticked. It’s a critical strategy on its own and needs buy in and commitment from across Finance, IT and Information Management and at all levels of the institution.

“If you are responsible for Payment Security this is unmissable!”
“Really useful and relevant presentations that give an insight into payment security and why this is so important.”
