This alliance is set to redefine security standards for banks, credit card issuers, and e-money institutions leveraging MSL's innovative platform.
Conor Doyle, MSL's co-founder and CEO, highlighted the strategic alignment between the two companies, stating their shared vision for technology and business will enable the delivery of customized solutions to financial institutions. This partnership is not confined to Europe; MSL plans to extend its enhanced services globally, with projects already lined up in the USA and LAC/South America regions.
Mike Muscato, MSL's Head of Technology, emphasized the technical synergy, noting the platform's ability to support multi-instances and multi-tenant versions instantaneously in any region.
