Intellicheck CEO Bryan Lewis said, “Account takeover incidents jumped 74 percent in 2019 at a significant cost to consumers and merchants. The need to prevent identity theft and fraud will continue to grow and intensify. This new product offering is an effective and efficient answer to the surging incidents of account takeovers throughout North America.”
Lewis noted that, “Authentication and verification must be top of mind across the lifetime of an account. To protect the business and consumer, you must first establish that the consumer opening an account has a valid form of government issued ID and then through facial biometric matching confirm that the consumer is in control of that ID. But account opening ID authentication is just the first step. There is an ongoing need to protect the business and the legitimate account holder from fraudulent account takeovers. Every request that could signal account takeover must be authenticated to prevent fraudsters from inflicting costly damage. This partnership provides multiple tools to do so.”
