Mobile banking saw extraordinary growth last year with a 200% increase in registrations and one in three consumers now reporting the mobile channel as the primary method they use to access their bank account. As financial institutions look to grow revenue and meet customers where they bank, it is no surprise to see cybercriminals doing the same.
With virtually all business getting done in the virtual world, giving new customers a personal experience from the outset can be challenging. How do you make sure you’re beginning on a mutual footing of trust, security, and high customer satisfaction?

Zelle is awesome! The highly innovative P2P scheme allows people to pay in real-time from their bank account to any of their contacts. It’s easy to use, super-fast and extremely convenient.
Digital transformation has introduced exponential opportunity in the financial space. The way we manage our money online (via banking, money transfers and shopping) has changed dramatically. We have moved away from a one-time, occasional transaction with a merchant, requiring several steps to checkout, to a continuous, connected relationship and quick, instant checkout. Digital identity has evolved into an essential part of the modern money lifecycle, bringing into the mix issues of securing personal data, privacy and more. At the same time, data breaches and phishing attacks have created an abundance of stolen credentials, turning identities into the most consequential attack vector in the financial world. During this webinar, Ayelet Biger-Levin, VP, and Gareth Campbell, Head of Threat Analytics, will discuss how BioCatch enables the future of money by providing a secure and frictionless user experience across multiple use cases such as account opening, login and payments.
New account fraud continues to grow at a rapid pace, threatening new digital banking business models and fintech platforms such as Zelle, that are in a customer acquisition race. Convenience, speed and ease of use make digital the preferred channel for consumers, but also open the door for criminals. With 14.7 billion personal records stolen in the last 6 years and the proliferation of synthetic identities making it very difficult to tell the difference between a legitimate applicant and one that will result in loss, new models for identity verification are starting to emerge, with behavioral biometrics as a key component.
Identity is everything on the internet. Every authentication hurdle online users need to jump through, such as two-factor authentication and passwords, is aimed at one goal – verifying the identity of the user. Digital identity has never been as important as it is now and will only continue to grow in importance as digital transformation takes hold.
One-time passwords (OTP) remain one of the most widely used forms of two-factor authentication, despite their well-documented vulnerabilities. Earlier this year, a major UK bank was hit by an attack in which fraudsters diverted text messages from legitimate customers’ phones in order to bypass two-factor authentication and access accounts.
Vishing costs British banking customers millions of pounds every year and has become the fastest growing scam in the United Kingdom, but the risk is not limited to that country. In a typical vishing fraud case, the criminal dupes his/her victims into performing financial transactions. For example, a fraudster may call the victim disguised as a security official from his or her bank and, after establishing trust, coerce the victim into transferring funds from his or her account into the scammer’s account as a ‘security measure.’ This voice-based, social engineering crime is only growing in popularity and is set to cost banking customers even more money in the coming years.
The paradigm for identity risk management and authentication is changing. In the new paradigm, context and data available for a specific type of interaction must drive analytics. Instead of just looking for commonality, we need to make better use of data that is unique.
As account opening continues to transition from physical to digital channels, financial institutions, issuers, lenders, and other organizations must optimize the digital experience of applicants in order to compete. At the same time, fraud is on the rise as criminals have become more successful than ever, thanks to some of the same digital channel benefits enjoyed by consumers: convenience, speed, and ease of use.
