With ACI’s UP Payments Risk Management solution, the technology will enable the banks to tackle conventional and robotic cyber threats in real-time.
BioCatch CTO and founder Avi Turgeman said: “As online and mobile banking proliferates, fraudsters are consistently finding new ways to infiltrate banks’ systems, creating havoc for consumers and businesses alike.
“By using behavioural data to distinguish between a genuine customer and a fraudster – whether human or non-human – we are able to detect fraudulent activity in real-time and protect consumers.”
