What are we working on? The Monzo Weekly Diary

Hi Mondonauts!

Firstly, I’m sorry that this is two days late. My first day at Mondo was just over a year ago when I started a 12 week summer internship. I’ve now graduated and started full time as a security and fraud engineer.

One of the guiding principles of Security @ Mondo is this:

Security at the expense of user experience is a last resort, be creative and find novel solutions.

I think this perfectly sums up what we are about, we will move mountains in the background to try and ensure that everything you do with Mondo is as frictionless as possible. I’m very excited about all the cool things we can do such as:

  • use location as a signal when determining if a card present transaction is fraudulent
  • verify your identity by tapping your passport on your NFC enabled Android phone
  • authenticate 3DS (MasterCard SecureCode and Verified by Visa) transactions by push notification challenge to your phone

Next up, I nominate @jonas
