Entersekt was recognised as a Leading Vendor, and highest rated Authentication-Focused Vendor, in the July 2024 Liminal Link Index for AccountTakeover (ATO) Prevention in Banking report. Leading Vendors are categorized as “Strong overall solutions that possess the must-have product and strategic capabilities for this usecase.”
Drawn from deep analysis of our customer data and our field research over the last 12 months, this report, which you can download here , is our most comprehensive yet and covers more industries, regions, fraud types, and usecases than ever before.
This new vigilance is the result of rampant cybertheft throughout the pandemic, from brazenly diverting government Paycheck Protection Program loans to the bad businesses of credential theft and accounttakeovers. Brown also pointed out the growing usecases for biometrics, calling facial and fingerprint recognition a good start.
“A similarly damaging trend is accounttakeovers (ATOs) where a bad actor gains access and takes over an online accountusing stolen or hacked credentials. When you think about it, it’s the high-tech version of social engineering. Deep fake threats John Baird, co-founder and CEO of Vouched.
Sharing economy businesses looking to keep their guests safe must deter data breaches that continually threaten organizations and can allow cybercriminals to steal usernames and passwords to access accounts. Other accounttakeover (ATO) schemes involve bots, which can conduct some 100 hits per second.
Accounttakeover (ATO) fraud proved to be particularly effective, causing $4 billion in losses. Possible usecases include determining how likely it is that a customer who purchased one item would buy a related product. Fraud losses hit $14.7 billion last year, according to the latest DataVisor Fraud Index Report.
At the close of 2018, a lot of people are hurting, either from climbing in too late or having lost their savings through accounttakeovers or hacking. Surely, we should first focus on the issues we want to address — faster payments, accounttakeover, and customer experience — then explore how we do it.
This is precisely why, according to Gartner, 70 per cent of all planned IAM investments are expected to be funnelled into ‘converged’ solutions that provide full coverage across most, if not all, identity needs and use-cases.
The differences in the processes make both types of ML useful in different situations, and pairing ML with AI can mean unparalleled fraud detection capabilities at a fraction of the cost of human analysts. Many QSRs and third-party ordering apps are thus already using these tools to enhance their fraud detection procedures.
Usecases for Selfie Reverification include preventing accounttakeover, securing high-risk transactions, streamlining account recovery and re-verification/re-validation, and more. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in New York, Socure most recently demoed its technology on the Finovate stage at FinovateFall 2017.
And in Asia especially, amid the battle of the super-apps, the goal is to drive as much activity through those apps and mobile wallets as possible, through QR payments in shops, lending, ride-hailing and food delivery (to name just a few usecases). For the firms that get it right, the opportunity within APAC is significant.
A BEC attack is when a fraudster gains unauthorized access to a business’s account. The most damaging form of BEC is accounttakeover (ATO) attacks. One usecase of BEC is when fraudsters use compromised data to trick staff into providing further information, such as their bank details or company secrets.
The fallout hits everyone involved via a fraudulent transaction, and, as the data shows, accounttakeovers are on the rise. In this case, it’s the user who takes control of the verification process — deciding what parts of their identity, and data, a company can utilize to establish verification.
But analyzing data in motion for faster insight and action is not just limited to payment fraud or accounttakeoverusecases. This release also features applications geared toward omnichannel payment fraud prevention, online accounttakeover prevention and product recommendations, among other initiatives.
Mangopay’s Fraud Prevention solution provides a fully integrated and payment processor-agnostic AI-driven cybersecurity solution to guard against an evolving range of threats, including accounttakeover by both bots and humans, reseller fraud, payment fraud, chargebacks, and return abuse.
The Vendor Analysis report noted that*: “While the use of AI is now prevalent across many industries and emerging usecases, FIs, in many ways, pioneered the use of AI in commercial applications.
There has been greater interest among FIs for tools that can provide the same level of service and satisfaction regardless of channel, with 88 percent of banks’ fraud executives stating that key usecases for risk assessment tools are ones that improve onboarding experiences.
Each usecase should be supported by expertly crafted anomaly detection techniques that are optimal for the problem at hand. In some instances, the legitimate account holder may not even spot it’s happening, particularly if its an account that they don’t regularly access themselves.
It was not much before Deep Blue, in 1992, that FICO pioneered the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning to fight credit card fraud. Fraud losses on US credit cards were reduced by over 70% since the introduction of FICO’s real-time anti-fraud analytics. FICO didn’t stop there. fraud and non-fraud) examples.
Banks are, however, revamping their approaches to these technologies on how they may be applied outside of their typical usecases, fending off cybercriminals who have a growing number of opportunities to access online banking platforms and customer data.
It’s a perfect storm because there are a lot of sharing usecases, there are a lot of platforms, and there are many users across those platforms,” he said. As Ritter noted, email accounts are the first avenues of attack for fraudsters. Gaining access to email gives bad actors an entry point for accounttakeovers.

Accounttakeovers are also a hotspot for fraudsters, to the tune of some $4 billion per year. We encourage [users] to think about particular usecases (for that data) and make sure they are leveraging the right amount of innovation.”. After all, bad data will produce bad, misleading results. “We
They have to make decisions in a short period of time … but once they get that application in place and they have figured out how to handle that data volume and enrich the events, there’s a real opportunity to add additional usecases quickly and to have these different usecases talk to each other,” Trueblood said.
The numbers are sobering, as always: The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has found that accounttakeover fraud is on the rise. Consumers must consent to the use of their data, and they also have the right to be forgotten, as companies can be ordered to wipe data.
Perhaps that’s why, in the midst of the seemingly never-ending stream of headlines about data breaches, accounttakeovers, stolen credit cards and online fraud , the notion of “check fraud” seems something of an outlier for the up-and-coming fraudster looking to make a decent living. There is no option to extend availability.
There are all kinds of verification usecases, he said, that don’t quite need full AML/KYC compliance, and classification purposes as to whether the consumer is in good standing or not. Preventing mobile accounttakeovers of existing accounts, or recognizing and proactively thwarting identity theft are two of the most common.
To prevent fraud and money laundering, activities must be secured with identity checks, including: When an account is accessed. When an activity is undertaken that increases a risk of accounttakeover— for example, if account details such as address or email need to be changed. by Sarah Rutherford.
