With this in mind, the question now is, what are retailers and credit card companies going to do and how quickly will they do it? Target has said that they’ll move to support so-called “smart cards” (also known popularly as “chip and pin”). These are widely used in Europe and elsewhere outside the U.S. Visa and MasterCard have said they want the US to switch over to smart cards broadly by October 2015. That will help thwart these kinds of attacks but that’s a long way out given how quickly events seem to be moving. And chip and pin isn’t a panacea: they’re harder to compromise than “swipe and sign” cards but they can still be compromised (typically by coordinating the capture of the data on the magnetic strip with a video capture of the cardholder entering their pin). And we have every reason to expect that sophisticated attackers will make cracking “chip and pin” a priority when the low-hanging fruit of “swipe and sign” goes away. In that regards it’s important to remember that Chip and Pin isn’t new technology. It has been around since 2002. It’s only new to the US.
