The security team at Dspread and the Ocelot offensive cybersecurity team at Metabase Q will work together to proactively identify and eliminate any potential vulnerability in Dspread point-of-sale (POS) terminals and end-to-end payment solutions

Dspread has today named Metabase Q as its cybersecurity partner to help identify and eliminate any potential vulnerability in its POS terminals and payment solutions.

“Our innovation in payment solutions has resulted in 6 series of smart and mobile POS terminals, all of which have received certifications from PCI PTS, EMV, PBOC, QPBOC, Mastercard Paypass, Visa Paywave, Amex Expresspay, Visa Ready, TQM, FCC and other international organizations,” said Matata Zhao, Chief Technology Officer at Dspread. “Our strategic partnership with Metabase Q will take our cybersecurity to a next level and will dramatically shrink the attack surface in our products because of their thorough and advanced testing capabilities.”

Dspread focuses on ensuring the security of transactions and availability of its end-to-end payment solutions for customers worldwide. In some environments, customers will utilize a Dspread POS terminal in conjunction with other devices that could present a security threat.

“One of our goals is to leverage the advanced cyber capabilities of our Ocelot offensive security team to identify and eliminate system vulnerabilities before cyber criminals can exploit them,” said Mauricio Benavides, CEO and co-founder of Metabase Q. “Working with the Dspread security team, we are able to immediately collaborate on expedited firmware updates that patch vulnerabilities in record time.”
