Welcome to our podcast series, Coffee with the Council. I'm Alicia Malone, Director of Communications and Public Relations for the PCI Security Standards Council.

What is the Brazil Regional Engagement Board and why is it being announced?

Alicia Malone 0:23
In today's episode, I'm excited to announce that the Council will open the nomination period for the next Brazil Regional Engagement Board next month. Regional Engagement Boards serve as advisors to PCI SSC on payment data security issues in specific geographies and markets. Joining me to discuss what this all means and how you can participate is the Council's own Guilherme Shaiba, Regional Director of Brazil and LAC. Welcome, Gui.
Guilherme Scheibe 0:53
Thank you, Alicia. I'm happy to be part of this award-winning podcast again and representing the LAC region.
Alicia Malone 1:00
Great. Well, let's start by describing what the Regional Engagement Board is. What is its purpose?

How does the REB function as an advisory body to the PCI SSC?

Guilherme Scheibe 1:07
Okay, so I like the word advisors because it's a great way to introduce what the REB is all about. So the REB works as an advisory board to the PCI SSC on payment data security issues in our region. But what does that really mean? Well, so from the regional perspective, what we do in the REB is give organizations more than just a voice. I mean, you know, every participating organization already has a voice with the council, but the REB makes that voice stronger. So instead of just having like one company speaking up, it becomes a collective voice that reflects the perspective of the entire region. On one side, the REB provides to the SSC with valuable insights that help shape the standards, and beyond that, it also guides how the council can deliver more value to our region.
Guilherme Scheibe 1:57
And to make this happen, the REB is made up of participating organizations and key USA companies that are based in Brazil, as well as global organizations that operate here with local presence and local teams.
Alicia Malone 2:09
What kinds of topics or issues in payment security have been the focus this term for the current board? Are there any specific accomplishments that you'd like to highlight?
Guilherme Scheibe 2:20
Okay, so first I'd like to mention that most of the topics we discussed are actually chosen by the IRB members themselves. So we had had some great conversations about the future of payment in the region, including, for example, emerging technologies and how they might be addressed by PCI standards. So during the migration to the PCI DSS 4.0 and its new requirements, members had the chance to openly discuss the challenges we face in the region and how to better address them.

What payment security topics and accomplishments has the current Brazil REB focused on?

Guilherme Scheibe 2:47
So these meetings are very collaborative. The idea is really to help each other. And another important theme that has been fraud trends and how PCI can play a role in mitigating certain types of fraud. I mean, this is a new thing because we're just trying to match what we do within the PCI standards with real cases of fraud that we have in the region. And of course, we couldn't leave AI out of the conversation, so members have shared how AI is being used to support security controls and even how it's starting to help them with the assessment processes. I also want to highlight that many members have volunteered to present during the meetings, which is quite nice and something that I particularly like a lot.
Guilherme Scheibe 3:29
I mean, they can share a case study, research results, and even experience that they have with new solutions like MPOC. So finally, some of our members were even selected to speak at global events, I mean, at our community meetings, which is a great accomplishment, and I think it's worth celebrating.
Alicia Malone 3:48
I love that.

What are the benefits and opportunities for organizations serving on the Brazil REB?

Alicia Malone 3:48
It sounds like a very collaborative board. What are some of the advantages to serving on the Brazil Regional Engagement Board? Why should stakeholders get involved?
Guilherme Scheibe 3:58
There are so many reasons to be part of the DRIB and get involved. First, we all know that protecting payments is not something that can be done alone. Serving the DRIB gives the organization the chance to be part of something greater, a group that works together to help secure payments. Beyond that, it provides a unique perspective from the region and specifically from a country like Brazil, which is considered a key market.
