Accertify, a unified risk decisioning platform, announced that it has released a key feature in its Account Protection solution, referred to as Attack State. This helps organizations to recognize coordinated login attacks and automated threats targeting customer accounts. It achieves this through the constant monitoring of login activities and their comparison to general network patterns.
Attack State analyzes the general network patterns and compares them to real-time activities to recognize patterns that have been associated with bot-driven campaigns, attacks involving credentials, and account takeover.
The solution provides empowerment to both fraud and cybersecurity teams through increased visibility in web, mobile, and API-based environments. In case of detected suspicious activity, Attack State sends alerts that include contextual intelligence. As a result, cybersecurity teams can evaluate the risks, monitor performance, and even make adjustments. On the other hand, fraud prevention teams get to know about the attacks before they happen, thus preventing fraud and account compromises. Furthermore, the solution adjusts to traffic variations, thus allowing normal users to have seamless interactions.
Holistic Platform Approach to Fraud
“Customer accounts are one of the most valuable targets for attackers today,” said Andy Mortland, senior vice president of product and development, Accertify. “This is why we must broaden fraud controls beyond the point of checkout alone. Organizations need visibility into signals across the entire customer journey, from login activity to transactions to post-purchase. Attack State is an example of the power of taking a holistic, platform approach to fraud, one that connects early attack signals with downstream fraud decisioning, giving fraud and cybersecurity teams the context they need to respond faster and protect customer accounts.”
