SYDNEY, June 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Ground Labs, the renowned developer of the leading cardholder data discovery tools Card Recon and Enterprise Recon, has confirmed its sponsorship of the Visa Security Summit 2011 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

As part of its corporate sponsorship, Stephen Cavey, Director of Corporate Development for Ground Labs, will speak in a focus session on Tuesday, June 14 at 2:30pm. His presentation will expose the non-compliant cardholder data storage practices of merchants and discuss the history of this issue, including the common mindset of employees, system administrators and other key personnel who encounter cardholder data as part of their day-to-day duties.

"Sponsoring the Visa Security Summit offers a solid platform to reach out to key players in the payment card industry throughout the EMEA region," said Mr. Cavey.
