Oink brings senior fraud expert on board

As more retailers cope with data breaches, Virtual Piggy, provider of family and teen payment technology Oink, has added Jordan Harris to its team as risk officer.



Harris will be responsible for ensuring that all areas of the Oink offering are protected against payment fraud and ensure that the solution meets applicable laws and regulations. His focus will include working with management to identify and implement enhancements related to the management and monitoring of risk and fraud related functions.



He has more than 10 years of technology and security experience at companies that include Apple, Netflix, Fandango and T-Mobile.



“At Oink, we take security and the protection of our customers’ data very seriously. We’re excited to have Mr. Harris on our team to ensure that Oink users have unparalleled safety when they are shopping online, on their phones or in stores,” said Oink advisory board member and FBI cyber security veteran Don Codling. “As we have seen, prevention is better than the cure when it comes to payments security and protection of customers’ personal data.”
