SAN ANTONIO, TX (February 1, 2011) — Liquid Networx today announced the first-rate lineup of speakers to include industry thought leaders for the first annual Secure Payments Summit in San Antonio, Texas on February 20-21, 2011.

Other topics to be covered include: compliance validation overview; fraud trends and best practices; legal aspects of information security; changes to the PCI DSS and PA DSS and how these changes will impact the merchant/acquirer relationship, and more.
Liquid Networx CEO Don Douglas values the importance and timeliness of the event as it spurs discussion around the ever-critical issues of network and PCI security. “We are committed to raising the visibility of security issues regionally and with our customers, and excited to be bring in high-caliber speakers and partners from around the country to San Antonio,” said Douglas.
Because the two-day event splits time between the Aztec Theater and the Texas Ranger Museum, Douglas adds, “Attendees will have an opportunity to enjoy an historical, if not unusual, perspective on what security used to be.”
