How To Protect Your POS (Point of Sale) Systems From Cyber Threats

There are too many companies who think that their Point-of-Sales (POS) systems are merely a responsibility of their cashiers who sit behind a sales desk. 

They literally forget that their POS systems face multiple-levels of risks, e.g., networking issues, open ports, cyber-attacks, accessibility issues, communication with a chain of their numerous back-end processes. More often these POS systems also communicate with company’s most sensitive data, such as Personally Identifiable Information (PII) of their customers.
