“The steady increase in mobile and online banking usage by our members over the past two years has led to a similar spike in fraudulent activities,” said Mick Vollmer, chief information officer of ABNB. “The addition of BioCatch will help us further protect our members in real time from threats such as social engineering scams, account takeovers, fraudulent account opening and mule account detection,” concluded Vollmer.
A member of Alkami’s Gold Partner Program, BioCatch monitors user behavior throughout the account lifecycle, at origination and continuously throughout each online session, to identify risk by analyzing actions such as mouse movements, typing cadence or interaction with the screen. Leveraging machine learning to produce a risk score, BioCatch identifies and alerts the financial institution to genuine or fraudulent behavior. The technology helps ensure account holders are provided with a secure and seamless digital experience all while reducing the financial institution’s risk.
