Family Porn Night: A Movie Review

As the opening titles come on screen, we hear but don’t see the sound of water sloshing in a bucket, being wrung out of a rag, heavy breathing, scrubbing. The titles fade and we see a woman, on her hands and knees, cleaning the floor of what we eventually learn is the British Museum. We hear footsteps, the sharp bark of a man saying, “Move!” as he and several others, carrying a fossil on a stretcher, tramp across the floor she has just cleaned. On the fossil we see a handwritten tag that reads “Sea Lizard found by Miss Mary Anning Lyme Regis.” The man in charge harrumphs, pulls the tag off, and replaces it with a tag that says “ICHTHYOSAURUS LYME REGIS Presented by H. Hoste Henley Esquire.” He has written Mary Anning out of history.

Ammonite is writer/director Francis Lee’s attempt to write Mary Anning, and queerness, back into the world of 1840s Britain. The plot is a simple romantic drama with an enigmatic ending. Simply put, Mary Anning falls in love with Charlotte Murchison but chooses to remain alone rather than give up her career by moving with Charlotte to London. The complex beauty of the movie comes from Lee’s subversion of audience expectations as well as some traditional film-making procedures. But how well he succeeded is still up for debate. The movie flopped at the box office, grossing under $1,000,000 world wide, failing to recoup the $3,000,000 distribution rights, let alone the $13.4 million in production costs. Carson Timar of “Clapper” wrote, “This is a bland and empty feature that feels like an ancient fossil void of any passion or substantial emotion” (Timar, 2020). With movie darling Kate Winslet in the lead and rising-star Saoirse Ronan playing opposite her, the lackluster reception is surprising. Does Ammonite, like Moonlight, prove that queer films need to be sexless to be successful (Lodge, 2017), or can we ascribe Ammonite’s box office bomb to other causes? I believe the erotic scenes are only part of the answer. While I disagree with the Rotten Tomatoes reviewer who said, “Simply out [sic], Ammonite commits that cardinal sin of being truly boring” (Andrew L., Ammonite, 2022), the slow pace likely contributed to Ammonite’s poor, reception sealing Ammonite’s fate as a “perfectly respectable, eminently professional slice of prestige arthouse” (Clarke, 2021) doomed to accrue financial losses. The other variable is not lesbian eroticism per se but rather lesbian eroticism scripted by women for the female gaze. In other words, two of the components that Lee uses to queer cinema are the very things that make it a failure in the public sphere.

In Ways of Seeing (1972), John Berger writes, “Seeing comes before words…It is seeing which establishes our place in the surrounding world” (p. 7). Lee builds Mary Anning’s rocky world slowly, introducing the audience to her visually before any words are spoken. Although this is the well-trodden territory of a period romance, this is a romance that reimagines history. Mary Anning was a real person from Lyme Regis, UK, who sold fossils (called ‘relics’ in the movie) to the British Museum beginning at age 11. But there is no evidence of her having a love interest, gay or otherwise. Some of Anning’s descendants have questioned Lee’s manipulation of her story, which highlights the problems with “outing,” or ascribing queerness to public figures. Posthumously attributing identities to people may be a tempting way to queer the past by showing “the world that many widely admired and respected men and women are gay” (Duggan, 2006, p. 153), but it can be problematic to apply a modern understanding of queerness to people who cannot confirm or deny those identities and who may or may not have accepted our definitions. In other words, even if Anning had engaged in romantic liaisons with other women, she may not have seen those relationships as queer, either in the sense of their being gay or out of the ordinary. Lee attempts to “honor the complexity of [Anning’s] differences” (Duggan, 1991, p. 155) by building a rich and textured world that includes multiple ways of forming relationships. Even while I acknowledge that “outing” Anning may be problematic, I still find joy in the sapphic world Lee imagines.

Lee’s femme-centered world doesn’t limit gender expression. Mary is a complex character, outwardly mirroring the coldness of her Lyme Regis beach but with a depth of feeling we catch in glimpses, most often through Winslet’s uncanny ability to convey emotion without speaking. Mary plays with gender performance, but retains her essential womanness, subverting early Hollywood’s “gender-inversion stereotype” (Bernshoff & Griffin, 2004, p. 7). She smokes and swears frequently, has dirty fingernails and armpit hair (appropriate for the time but not for Hollywood). When engaged to take care of Charlotte, who has “melancholia,” Mary says, “There looks to be fuck all wrong with you to me” (0:28:30). She genuinely loves finding and cleaning fossils. When Charlotte, who has recently lost a baby, asks Mary if she has children, Mary replies, “I have my work. I don’t need children as well” (00:51:38).

As the movie progresses, Lee reveals Mary’s tender (feminine) side, showing her caring for a sick Charlotte and, at one point, wearing a dress and perfume to attend a recital with Charlotte. After Charlotte returns to London, Mary receives a letter from her. Before opening it, Mary lifts it to her nose hoping to catch the perfume Charlotte wore.

Charlotte originally acts as a more traditionally feminine counterpoint to Mary’s masculinity. She wears bonnets and bows, black to show mourning, and delicate heeled shoes. She’s weak and pale from what her husband calls “melancholia” but which could more honestly be called depression, either from the loss of a baby or the pressure of passing as heterosexual. Her angst doesn’t last long. Within a few scenes, Charlotte sets aside her expensive clothing for rugged boots to better accompany Mary on her morning fossil huts. Color comes back into her cheeks, she laughs more frequently, and she fully engages in Mary's work. Charlotte’s awakening coincides with her temporary move from London to Lyme Regis while Mary simply is regardless of her location. This juxtaposition has been noted by Karl Schoonover and Rosalind Galt in Queer Cinema in the World (2016), “Some people have to travel to express their sexuality and/or gender, and others stay home” (p. 77).

Lee contrasts elements in order to show how the women grow closer while retaining their core identity. While lying in bed together, Charlotte says, “Say it again.” Mary then recites a limerick:

There was a young woman named Sally

Who loved the occasional dally.

She sat on the lap

Of a well-endowed chap

And she said, ‘Oh, you’re right up my alley” (1:15:45).

Charlotte smiles, having let go of some of her feminine-coded sensibilities, while Mary, nude and vulnerable, curls trustingly next to her.

In a similar contrasting scene, Mary wades into the white-cap waves, turns, and waits for Charlotte to join her. Charlotte slowly walks out, frightened. She reaches Mary, who grabs her around the waist and smiles. Charlotte clings to her, still afraid, but feeling safe in Mary’s arms. This scene is the only time we see Mary laugh, and her joy mirrors the bright sun and warm filter unusual in this movie. Here, Mary both protects and pushes Charlotte, never demanding Charlotte change but offering help if Charlotte chooses to take it.

Two intimate scenes in the movie show just how transformative Lee’s film-making is. Rather than hire an intimacy choreographer, Lee, Winslet, and Ronan scripted each sex scene by themselves, relying on open communication and the trust they had in each other. These aren’t the “throw her up against the wall with no foreplay” scenes so common in heterosexual sex scenes, nor are they the “soapy shower and giggling college girls” lesbian scenes meant for the male gaze. Instead, Ammonite’s “staging of sexuality, gendered embodiment, and nonheteronormative sex” (Schoonover & Galt, 2016, p. 11) successfully disrupt heteronormative ideas about how sex happens, who enjoys sex, and how they enjoy it.

“Don’t take no for an answer,” seems to be the mantra in many erotic heterosexual scenes, but the first erotic scene in Ammonite queers cinema by pausing the action mid-point. After Charlotte kisses her, Mary kneels in front of Charlotte. Before going further, she waits, staring up at Charlotte until Charlotte raises her own skirts in enthusiastic consent.

The final erotic scene queers cinema by subverting audience expectations. The night before Charlotte is to return to London, they lovingly caress each other’s faces. Noses touching, they gently kiss. As the scene progresses, they each guide the other’s hand, sometimes moving the hand to their own pudendum and sometimes away. Lee uses close camera angles, focusing on how the women’s bodies move together. The camera stays on each woman’s face as she climaxes. These are women showing each other how they want to be touched. Each woman confidently directs the actions of the other while asserting her own right to pleasure.

Both erotic scenes are enigmas in the movie industry: female pleasure for a female gaze. Per Schoonover & Galt, cinema is “an apparatus of desire, endlessly reconstituting what Jacqueline Rose called sexuality in the field of vision” (2016, p. 11). Eroticism scripted by women, focusing on how women experience pleasure, queers film in a uniquely feminist way; it uses “the potential of the erotic to remake the cinematic desire machine” (Schoonover & Galt, 2016, p. 11) reflecting the sapphic world Lee has created. I argue that the initial sex scene with a focus on enthusiastic consent and cunnilingus is a “counterpublic logic of visibility” that queers media by “extending representation beyond mainstream fantasies about white femme lesbians” which is “achieved in and through sex acts” (Schoonover & Galt, 2016, p. 12). Both erotic scenes, as well as other hinted-at but not seen moments, occur in Mary's home or on Mary's beach, "locating lesbian desire in a domestic setting and turning to familial intimacies as a place where women might find fulfillment beyond the strictures of marriage" (Schoonover & Galt, 2016, p. 19). Once the women are in London, in Charlotte's male-owned home, the intimacy (physical and emotional) falters and dies.

Gender expansiveness and eager consent are not the only way Lee queers cinema. We learn that Mary had a relationship with another woman in her town, Elizabeth Philpot (played by Fiona Shaw), which ended when Mary’s father died. Elizabeth acts as an oracle, guiding Mary in her relationship with Charlotte and foreshadowing the end of that same relationship. When Mary’s mother, Molly (played by Gemma Jones), dies, Elizabeth visits Mary and says, speaking of their past romance, “I wasn’t sure I could live up to you. Or your expectations of me…You seemed to do everything you could to be distant…It seems your Mrs. Murchison has been able to unlock something in you I couldn’t…” (1:34:16). Here, Elizabeth references the softness Lee showed in the limerick and beach scenes. It’s also vital to note that neither woman seems to have faced ridicule because of their relationship, nor do they seem to have kept it particularly quiet. I appreciate seeing a lesbian relationship that doesn’t double as a morality play.

Mary follows Elizabeth’s advice and accepts an invitation to visit Charlotte in London. From this point on, Lee relies more heavily on language and sound to convey how small and out-of-place Mary is. This sudden cinematic shift undermines the queer worlding I found so lovely in the first two-thirds of the movie.

At London port, bodies (all of them male except hers) are in constant motion. They press around her while they yell to and at each other. We’ve lost the cool tones of Lyme and found harsh sunlight. Lee’s feminism is not subtle. If "(queer) film theory is always a feminist project" (Schoonover & Galt, 2016, p. 11), Lee hits the brief, but he does so with a sledgehammer.

At Charlotte’s house, Mary opens a curio cabinet containing fossils she helped Roderick Murchison (played by James McArdle) find. The tag on one of the fossils reads, “Cornu Ammonis. Dorset Coast. Miss Mary Anning.” Taking it out, Mary notices the last line has been pasted on top of the original line. Pulling it back, Mary reads, “Mr. Murchison Esq.” Lee doesn’t just allude to his correction of the historical record, he screams it.

The breakup scene between the two women is similarly heavy-handed. Charlotte shows Mary to a room she has decorated for her “so we can be together always.” Winslet does an excellent job conveying a parade of emotions, but the ensuing dialogue lacks finesse and undermines the acting prowess of both Winslet and Ronan.

Mary doesn’t directly answer Charlotte, instead saying, “I really shouldn’t…I wanted to see my relic in the British Museum today….”

When Charlotte expresses dismay and repeats her offer to provide Mary with a new home, Mary says, “You presumed I’d just be fitted into your life here, like one of my relics in your fine glass case…Will you label me, too?” (1:47:45). Charlotte insists, “I want this to be different. Our different…I don’t want to go back to the life I had before you” (1:48:07). The unnatural, forced dialogue breaks Lee's “show, don’t tell” rule and makes it hard to access the emotion Lee wants us to feel.

Mary rushes out of the house, and we next see her in front of her ‘relic’ at the British Museum. She notices the tag, the first time she’s seen it, and, looking up, sees Charlotte gazing at her across the glass-encased fossil. The camera pans out in one of the few long-shots of the film and we see the women, faces covered by bonnets, caged fossil in the middle. Men in top hats circulate around them.

As if afraid that he wasn’t clear enough, in the last scene Lee reminds the viewer of his intentions. Mary walks through a portrait gallery showing the men who helped create and run the British Museum. The very last image is Mary, facing back toward the gallery, framed.

It isn’t just the shift to London or the sudden heavy-handed cinematography that jars the viewer. The final 20 minutes of the film tackles class issues but ignores broader themes of imperialism and racism.

Classism is seen best in Mary’s interactions with Charlotte’s housekeeper. When the housekeeper answers Mary’s knock, she assumes from Mary’s rough clothing that she’s a hired worker. The housekeeper says, “Tradesman’s entrance is around the side. Go all the way back” (1:41:29). After explaining who she is, Mary is shown to the drawing room and Charlotte greets her with a passionate kiss. Mary glances at the housekeeper, but Charlotte says, “Oh, that’s just the maid,”(1:44:23) at which point the housekeeper side-eyes the women and shuts the drawing room door. Class bias goes unchallenged by any of the characters even in light of Charlotte’s relationship with poor, rural, crass Mary. Additionally, there are no Black, Indian, or Egyptian people. At the height of British imperialism, there should be several non-white people, especially once the action moves to London.

Ammonite does not employ “an anti-imperialist stance that de-privileges the Western queer film canon” (Schoonover & Galt, 2016, p. 15) in part because it fails to address Britain’s imperialism and in part because it, too, uses Western imperialist structures to (unsuccessfully) promote itself. Originally available only in theaters and on Amazon, viewers can now access it through other streaming services such as Hulu and Vudu. All subscription based. All part of the cinema industrial complex.

I enjoyed Ammonite. At least, I enjoyed it the second time. The first time, thinking it would be similar to the 2019 movie Wild Nights With Emily, I convinced my husband and my two daughters, aged 18 and 15, to watch it with me. As a heterosexual-passing pan woman who has been in love with Winslet since the 1995 remake of Sense and Sensibility, I had looked forward to seeing her in a role that more accurately represented me. However, sitting with two of my children I felt my face turn red. In a brilliant parenting moment /s I tried to cover up my embarrassment by saying, “This is important. People with vaginas experience sexual pleasure differently than the movies make it seem. As people with vaginas, we have to advocate for our own pleasure,” at which point my 15 year old ran out of the room, eyes closed, hands over her ears. The 18 year old stayed, but mostly to ridicule my parenting. Two years later, when my daughters feel particularly spicy, they’ll say, “Hey, mom! Remember when you made us watch lesbian porn?”

They echo criticism from the public. One reviewer said, “Serious concerns that a famous lady has been wronged by the Lesbian storyline. Proof/truth? As for the soft porn. Why? Nothing more than eroticism for a very small segment of the population” (Alastair G, Ammonite, 2022). Even though I disagree that the movie is soft porn, and I disagree that we're a "very small segment of the population," I think Alastair hits (unwittingly) on the reason the movie failed. A combination of the slow pace and sex by and for women, two of the aspects that queer the movie, result in an insurmountable barrier for a public that is trained to prefer action and rough-and-ready sex created for the male gaze.

Legality of NFTs in India as per IPR: All You Need to Know

This article on 'NFTs legality as per IPR: All You Need to Know' was written by Madiha Khan, an intern at Legal Upanishad.

Introduction

NFTs, or non-fungible tokens, are a type of cryptocurrency token that comprises a variety of physical and virtual properties. It includes images, gifs, drawings, movies, multimedia recordings, and other media. Each NFT is distinct and regarded as a rarity. A blockchain digital journal is used to document NFTs in a way that confirms their originality and legitimacy. Blockchain technologies are digital blocks that keep track of all the transactions involving the virtual digital asset, also known as VDA, where the data and title of NFTs holders are kept. The Intellectual property laws apply to royalty-free licenses on how their CryptoPunks may be used in derivative works belonging to NFT holders.

NFTs procedure

After establishing an NFT, the "smart contracts" replace the current system for the storing and exchanging of digital assets. A smart contract can be thought of as software programs connected to the NFT that includes information, guidelines, and rights relating to the primary asset joined to the NFT, like royalties from music, bonds, invoices, and so on. Thus, the "Tokenization" mechanism enables the original token creator to profit financially from future NFT buyers, which is made possible by the token's uniqueness. Authors can receive royalties on successive future sales of the original work within an NFT on popular NFT platforms like NiftyGateway, Rarible, OpenSea, etc

Intellectual Property Protection

NFTs might be covered by intellectual property rights such as copyrights, design, and trademark protections. As a result, buyers of NFTs should be aware of any associated intellectual property rights. Although design patents may be able to protect some NFT-protected assets, those NFTs would still be restricted by the same legal restrictions as conventional products and services. However, some NFTs may be subject to trademark and copyright protection. Plausibly, NFTs could be tied to a legal right. The right to own one copy of the creative work (in the same way as one may own any goods or asset) and the freedom to make replicas and produce variants, however, are two distinct rights.

Copyrights protection

Even though NFTs are a pretty modern and somewhat unusual sort of art, copyright law will perceive them in the same manner as any other conventional works of art. They instantaneously become the owner of that work. Selling the printed copy or tangibly printed NFTs is not allowed, however, printing a non-fungible token is much simpler. Certain NFTs violate copyright laws by employing works of art that have been stolen from creators or well-known pieces that the NFT developers are not affiliated with and do not have permission to use. Copyright infringement can also occur even when these works are copied for NFT marketing purposes. An NFT can be screenshotted only for private use and infringement can occur if you resell it, claim ownership of it, share it online or elsewhere, or create a copy of the work for commercial purposes. If such actions are done, the NFT's proprietor may file a lawsuit against the infringer for copyright infringement, or be charged with additional crimes. Where copyright is concerned the title of the core rights can only be transferred to the NFT holder if the original work's author expressly approves doing so. Based on the terms of the transaction, an NFT owner may not be permitted to recreate, advertise copies, display the work publicly, showcase, or make backup copies of the original property only when copyright is transferred via licensing. Under Section 14 of the Indian Copyright Act of 1957, the copyright owner is granted several privileges, including the ability to make copies and alterations. When a customer purchases an NFT that correlates to artistic activity, they also receive a copy of the underlying work (in some digital format, such as.jpeg,.pdf, or.mp4) in addition to the NFT itself, or tokens. Any unauthorized use of an NFT and sending it to a client could be construed as copyright infringement. This goes for any unlawful distribution, copying, or adaptation of an NFT. Imposing IP rights against a buyer after an NFT sale can be difficult because NFT ownership is decentralized and blockchain transactions are immutable. Similar to a bank account, an NFT is typically associated with a mobile wallet address, but without strong digital evidence, identifying the wallet owner could be challenging. Thus, utilizing legally powerful takedown notices might stop the NFT from ever being sold.

The legality of NFTs

If NFTs were classified as derivatives, dealing in them would be prohibited in India since, in accordance with Section 18a of the SCRA (securities contract regulation act), such activity is not permitted on the internet. They are regarded as valid only when derivative transactions are traded on a lawful stock exchange. Commercial transactions known as derivatives generate their value from an underlying asset. These could include interest rates, indexes, commodities, currencies, exchange rates, and equities. By wagering on the appreciation of the underlying asset, these investment products assist in generating income. The person who mints/makes the NFT is the rightful owner of it. Therefore, in reality, the NFT's owner is not always the author/creator. Nonetheless, minting an NFT of work for that another party owns the rights will effectively be regarded as the work's theft and a copyright violation. In 2018, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) tried to outlaw the usage of bitcoin or cryptocurrencies. In reaction to the aforementioned order, a few businesses that run online crypto trading platforms and other groups filed appeals.

NFTs legality in India as per IPR: All You Need to Know

Suggestion

Misuse of an NFT or other IP connected to an NFT, you run a legal risk and can potentially be sued. Always beware that the work is not copyrighted content of another if you are an NFT author. Similarly, if you are an NFT holder, follow the rules that are there for your NFT to avoid infringement. Always be alert and avoid clicking on dubious sites as it could be malicious and harm or hack your device by disclosing your password, or through user error, your NFT could be taken. Technically, a hacker would need access to your wallet in order to steal your NFT; otherwise, they would just be pulled out of thin air. With the advancement in technology, NFT can be stolen in several ways.

Conclusion

Therefore, it is crucial to make a distinction between both the sovereignty of the NFT and the IP that supports it when looking at the property rights implications of NFTs. The powers given through a license or assignment can differ from one NFT to the next, determining the rights provided by an NFT seller. India ought to take inspiration from nations with well-balanced legal and regulatory systems to reduce loopholes and avoid infringement of the rights of the author. NFTs do have advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage is that there is no stability, and the public is concerned that the NFTs are blatantly overstated as well as the possibility that the NFT market might collapse.

hello.... idk how to start this tumblr so here's some stuff about logistics & what i've been doing/ what i'll be doing [?] & all the waiting & liminal space & even being excited !! about doing a phd which is one of my dreams in life !!

:)))

i’ve been having a weird time for many reasons & haven't been particularly stable for the past like six months to a year whilst i've been working on phd ideas/proposals/funding applications and although i have had some joyful moments & got to spend lots of time with my fav person i'm really glad all that waiting and deadlines and redrafting over and over and over is over. my phd as a project/idea went through i would say three main iterations - the first was mostly just.... wibbly wobbly.... but the second iteration was what i applied with to all bar one place & it did well with academics who were invariably kind to me about my project, enthusiastic about the authors/ideas in it and happy to supervise me if i got a place - & the project did get me some places.

the last proposal i wrote was for a specific medical humanities, health inequality, interdisciplinary studentship and i think it coalesced my ideas to their peak and is the most successful they've been - altho one of the other applications i did was also recieved really well & the did invite me to take up a place applying for funding & starting it in 2023, that just doesnt work for me !

so my phd, rather than being on the original four women authors i wanted to bring together is instead about a whole range of women sociaists from across the uk who were all writing fiction and non fiction about politics, women, care & relationships and it does mean my time frame shifts to focus more on the 1890s than across them into the twentieth century (so i wont include sylvia townsend warner like i had originally planned which is a little sad). it will tho still cross into 'modernism', & that's good because modernism is really important to me!

i'm also kind of hoping to read/work on some naomi mitchison but im not really sure if she fits in terms of 'era' but like... i think she's cool & vibes with the other women included atm... & i would also love love love to discover some working class women socialists lost in the archive who i can fish out and shout about. (i also need to reread my proposal lol bc i pushed a lot of it out my mind when preparing for an interview on the second project!)

anyway i thought i would write this out as a kind of reflection on what the process of applying & interviewing & not getting funding/etc was like as well as record of the amount of work and effort i put in (along with the many kind people who read drafts & supported me through each application!)

logistically i'm not in a totally fine place but i am going to reapply for funding in my first year and in the mean time get a postgrad loan [grimace emoji] to cover my fees and some living costs and i'm lucky in that my parents can help me financially a lot [!] altho i dont want to rely on them at all really bc they suck a bit. my soon-to-be phd supervisor (!) is really lovely, was rly happy when i said i would take up a place with her & thinks i have a high likelihood of accessing funding and i also have found a couple of places to apply to for small amounts of funding, which give out between around £500 to £3000 for postgrads & which i'll write an application schedule out for soon. as well as u know... finding a place to live... moving... etc etc

the process of applying itself has left me with a little web of kind women (most of whom are obviously queer) academics who loved my proposal[s] and so i also feel like i have some folks i could email for advice/checking in/whatever already, across different institutions and that's really nice!!!

anyway i dont quite know what this tumblr will be or how i will use it but yh... i'm sure i'll be sharing some quotes, some ideas & experiences, study inspiration, complaints about how im treated bc i'm disabled, being gay and falling for ghosts etc etc

#personal #studyblr #criphd #now i get to develop a whole new tagging system for this tumble which i love bc im a capricorn an a bit.... weird #tumblr lol #this process has made me think i might be a little charming lol

5 Payment Security Essentials Every E-Commerce Business Needs

Online transactions are the mainstay of many firms in the modern digital age. But along with this ease of use goes the constant risk of fraud and fake payments. Malicious actors are always coming up with new strategies to take advantage of weaknesses in e-Commerce payment systems, ranging from identity theft to phishing scams. Here's where e-Commerce payment security steps in, serving as a crucial barrier against monetary losses and harm to one's reputation.

This thorough guide will give you the information and resources you need to protect your online payments and run a safe and successful business. We will examine the many forms of fraud and bogus payments, examine current e-Commerce payment security trends and technology, and provide doable actions you can take to reduce risks and improve your payment security posture.

Regardless of your level of experience as an entrepreneur or where you are in e-Commerce Business, this article will help you navigate the tricky world of payment security. Recall that awareness and awareness are the first steps towards safeguarding your e-Commerce Business and your clients. Now go ahead and learn the essential actions you can take to guarantee safe and protect your online payments.

What Is Payment Security?

Payment security is the invisible barrier securing the most sensitive data of your clients; it goes beyond firewalls and sophisticated encryption methods. Every transaction is made sure to go through safely and smoothly by the invisible character. In a word, it's the solid assurance that your clients' sensitive financial information and hard-earned cash are secure.

Consider it as creating a stronghold around your web shop. Secure payment gateways, data encryption that jumbles information into unintelligible codes, and fraud detection systems that flag suspicious transactions before they even reach the gate are some of the payment security bricks that wall. It involves maintaining your consumers' financial lives worry-free and avoiding smart hackers with smart techniques.

Consequently, e-Commerce payment security is essential to building trust and is not an alternative, even for large online retailers. With peace of mind in every click, it's the key to unlocking growth, safeguarding your brand, and ultimately keeping your customers coming back for more.

Why Payment Security Is So Important for E-Commerce Businesses?

E-Commerce websites should give payment security a priority for many reasons for running safe and successful business.

First, when making transactions online, consumers are growing increasingly conscious of and concerned about their financial and personal security. Businesses that don't offer a secure environment risk losing their trust, which can drive customers away from their website and reduce revenue.

A security event or data breach can also have serious legal and financial repercussions for enterprises, such as penalties, litigation, and reputational harm.

Therefore, by avoiding potential fines and legal ramifications, online retailers may end up saving money over time by investing in strong e-Commerce payment security procedures.

Five Essential Payment Security Elements for Online Retailers-

Use e-Commerce payment security measures to safeguard clients' personal information and earn their trust in your online purchasing procedure. Still, depending just on these fundamental security measures is insufficient to protect your online payments.

You can find other vulnerabilities and apply the required security fixes by using tools such as ChatGPT.

You should give top priority to the following e-Commerce payment security features:

1. SSL Encryption

Secure Sockets Layer encryption, or SSL encryption, is a security technology that ensures the confidentiality and integrity of data transmitted over the internet.

It makes it extremely difficult for hackers to intercept and decode the information transferred between a web server and a web browser by encrypting the conversation. Consequently, SSL encryption protects private data, such as passwords, credit or debit card information, and personal information, against unauthorised access and malicious activities.

Additionally, SSL provides authentication, a procedure that verifies to the browser the identity of the web server. Potential attackers who would try to pose as a legitimate website and steal personal information are discouraged by this.

Depending on your company's demands and specifications, there are various ways that you can implement SSL encryption. Your web host or a reliable certificate authority (CA) can provide you with an SSL certificate.

Another option is to use a cheap SSL certificate that businesses offer. It is also simple to install these trustworthy CA-issued certificates on the server.

Furthermore, a few web hosts include integrated SSL certificates in their hosting packages. The installation and renewal of SSL certificates are frequently handled automatically by these hosting packages, saving website owners from having to do it by hand.

2. Tokenization

Tokenization is the process of dividing a lengthy text document into manageable chunks, such as words or phrases. Text analysis, machine learning, and natural language processing all make use of this procedure.

Tokenization is the process of replacing sensitive payment information, such as credit card numbers, with a reference token while making a payment. In this manner, the original sensitive data cannot be recovered, even in the event that the token is taken.

3. Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

An additional security measure for the login procedure is two-factor authentication (2FA).

In order to authenticate themselves, users must supply extra data in addition to their login and special password. This additional information may consist of a PIN, a response to a security question, a code texted to their mobile device, a tangible token, or biometric information.

4. Penetration Testing

The practice of identifying security flaws in your e-Commerce system to stop breaches that could endanger your company is known as penetration testing.

Payment gateways are tested (or simulated), problems are checked for, and vulnerabilities such as XSS and SQL injections are searched for.

In order to adhere to regulatory standards such as PCI-DSS and ISO 27001, penetration testing is required. By using a pentest testing tool, you may evaluate your security from the outside in and make ongoing improvements.

You will receive a report following the test that lists all issues discovered and recommendations for resolving them. In addition to being essential for e-Commerce security, penetration testing can reduce costs by averting data breaches to run a safe and successful business.

5. PCI DSS compliance

Major credit card firms have developed a set of security requirements called PCI DSS compliance, or Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard compliance, to secure sensitive cardholder data. With the goal of preventing data breaches and ensuring improved security during payment processing, it applies to any organisation that handles, keeps, or transmits cardholder data.

A comprehensive set of rules covering a wide range of topics, including network security, physical security, data encryption, access control, and vulnerability management, has been made available by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI SSC). Strict access limits, frequent security testing, encryption of cardholder data, and firewall maintenance are a few essentials. A screen grab from the PCI DSS compliance document is shown below. It addresses any areas that might need attention and provides an overview of the organization's compliance.

Why it's more important than ever to do secure payments?

An online retail company, sometimes referred to as an e-Commerce endeavour, makes it easier for people to exchange goods and services via the Internet. These companies use digital channels to reach a larger audience and guarantee smooth online transactions. Web design services, clothing, consumer goods, software development, and other industries are all included in e-Commerce firms. Entrepreneurs can use different online channels such as email marketing and social media platforms, or they can build a dedicated website to start their e-Commerce business. They are able to increase sales and reach a wider audience as a result.

The world of deception is booming: Cyber-attacks are getting worse and costing companies billions of dollars every year. Companies can be left reeling after a single breach that destroys confidence and damages reputations.

The regulatory maze: PCI DSS, GDPR, CCPA — the dizzying array of acronyms for compliance can be confusing. We'll simplify the essentials and provide you with the information you need to properly manage these obligations.

Expectations from customers are extremely high: they want safe and easy payment experiences. Neglecting to fulfil these demands may result in abandoned carts and lost profits.

Conclusion-

In the connected world of today, online payment security is an essential component of e-Commerce enterprises that should not be disregarded when safeguarding your e-Commerce Business. To prevent security breaches and securing sensitive customer data, it is recommended to include comprehensive payment security features such as SSL encryption, tokenization, 2FA, penetration testing, and PCI DSS compliance. All of these precautions also guard against any possible security breach or other data breach that might occur within your company.

Prioritising payment security can help you build your company's credibility, which is crucial for long-term success. Customers will feel comfortable making payments online, which will eventually boost your clientele, encourage repeat business, and help your company expand. Therefore, to protect your clients' data and establish a solid reputation in the e-Commerce sector, make sure to give payment security top priority and to put the required security elements in place.

Capacity Building: Need for skilled personnel and resources to implement and maintain the FSMS.

Cultural and Structural Barriers: Overcoming resistance to change in traditional practices and integrating modern food safety practices into the local context.
