We all know that ESD (Electro-Static Discharge) ruins, or can seriously damage electronic circuits, cards, components and/or assemblies. However, we do not always give enough credit to the impact that corrosion has on creating failures or walking wounded electronics.
America leads the way in losses due to credit card fraud. Statistically speaking, it accounted for 47% of the $11.3 Billion in worldwide fraud in 2012.
This was an increase of 15% according to that which was reported in 2011.
American consumers remain targeted because there are more credit cards here and magnetic strip security systems are easy to bypass.
