Regional Credit Union Uses Acuant AssureID™ to Fight Synthetic ID Fraud

Synthetic identity fraud is a type of fraud in which a criminal combines real and fake information to create a new identity to open fraudulent accounts and make fraudulent purchases. Synthetic fraud is one of the fastest growing financial crimes in the U.S with 85 to 95% of synthetic fraud identities slipping past risk detection systems that are failing to flag them.

This case study details how a regional Credit Union integrated Acuant AssureID™ to protect against synthetic fraud ultimately saving hundreds of hours in employee time and tens of thousands of dollars in losses.
