You have probably been a victim of impersonation fraud or you know of a case close to you. Of course, impersonation is one of the crimes that has been trending since 2020.  

According to PwC’s Global Economic Crime and Fraud survey, 47% of companies in the world claim to have experienced impersonation fraud and possibly one of the main causes is the absence of identity validation and verification processes.

With the arrival of the digital era, business grew exponentially, but at the same time, criminals took advantage of this situation, and today they continue to be a headache for companies.  

According to a report published by Semana magazine, there was an alarming 40% increase in fraud in banking transactions during the year 2022. In addition, cases of forgery and phishing are reaching increasingly sophisticated levels, gaining popularity among criminals.

Faced with this problem, it is absolutely necessary for companies to adopt effective strategies and measures to combat these threats and protect their users and the integrity of digital transactions.

The importance of identity validation in corporate fraud prevention

Identity validation is a process in which companies can ensure the legitimacy of users, customers, employees or suppliers with whom their business is maintaining a relationship. This is why nowadays this process has become so important for businessmen, as the figures of business fraud.

Today it has become a necessity to prevent the risk of fraud by third parties, especially for industries that are in the digital environment and therefore face greater risks at the time of onboarding of users.

For example, banking and fintech entities are one of the guilds that have been most affected by this problem of identity theft. “30,410 cases of cybercrime were reported. 42% represent phishing, 28% identity theft and 16% fraud in online media”. Revista Semana

This problem of impersonation is especially present at the time of linking new customers, employees or suppliers, so it is essential to add identity validation practices and technologies, such as KYC & AML and biometric validation, which is currently the most effective.

Fraud security: The power of facial biometric validation

Facial biometric validation has proven to be a powerful anti-fraud tool for businesses, using unique and distinctive characteristics of the user’s face to ensure secure and reliable authentication. By implementing this technology, companies can accurately verify the identity of their customers and employees, thus avoiding cases of impersonation and fraudulent transactions.

Advanced systems can detect if a facial image is real or if it is a photograph, mask or even a 3D model or even the most sophisticated, deepfakes.
