Replace easily manipulated biometric-only logins with BioConfirm’s device-bound dynamic linking, ensuring high-risk transactions and account changes are only approved by the real user.
BioConfirm works by combining two strong factors – biometric inherence (Face/Fingerprint) and trusted device possession – backed by cryptographic tokens that no fraudster can see, spoof, or intercept. This creates real-time, user-controlled approvals that not only strengthen compliance but also block fraud methods by design.

Often prioritize identifying suspicious activities, leading to a higher rate of false positives by flagging legitimate user actions as potentially fraudulent due to their focus on anomalies. It causes inconvenience for legitimate users, pollutes their experience, and wastes valuable resources
Group-IB Fraud Protection takes a different approach, prioritizing user authentication before delving into fraud detection. This user-centric prioritization significantly reduces false positives.
Vendors not embracing cyber-fraud fusion risk falling behind due to their limited scope, siloed operations, reactive measures, inability to adapt to evolving threats, and failure to meet customer expectations for comprehensive fraud and cybersecurity solutions
Group-IB leads in cyber-fraud fusion and has integrated the cyber-fraud kill chain framework, demonstrating a proactive approach to comprehensive fraud prevention. This equips clients with a multi-layered fraud protection service against increasingly sophisticated online threats
While AI enhances fraud detection capabilities, relying solely on it means vendors often overlook the nuanced expertise of human analysts
Our fraud detection systems leverage artificial intelligence (AI), but we also value human expertise. That's why we assign a dedicated Fraud Analyst to each client. These analysts have the experience to interpret fraud patterns, investigate suspicious activities, and provide personalized guidance for comprehensive fraud prevention
Fraud providers without local fraud analysts face limitations in combating region-specific fraud due to a lack of cultural and linguistic understanding, missed red flags, and an inability to gather real-time intelligence about emerging fraud trends and schemes
Group-IB's regional Digital Crime Resistance Centers establish a local presence with in-depth knowledge of cultural nuances, language, and client behaviors within a region. This allows for a better understanding of local fraud tactics and behaviors, leading to accurate identification of fraudulent activities
Many vendors often prioritize revenue over providing adequate client support and resources, which can hinder their ability to effectively combat fraud
Group-IB’s fraud protection service has been recognized as a market leader by major market analysts, including Gartner, Frost & Sullivan, Kuppingercole, and Forrester. Our platform has lowered the rate of false positives by 20% and enabled 10% to 20% more fraud attempts to be detected and prevented. It also improved customer experience, reducing the need for one-time passwords by 30%.

Fraud Protection is a set of tools and services that help organizations detect, identify, prevent damage and protect from digital fraud; it comprises both fraud prevention and fraud detection strategies. Fraud Protection services are used to protect the digital identity of users, block bot activity and prevent fraud. Fraud Protection helps reduce fraud losses and improve user experience in automated customer systems.
Group-IB Fraud Protection allows you to detect the following types of fraud: social engineering attacks (phishing sites, email scams etc.), account takeover fraud, payment fraud, malicious bot attacks, web injections, mobile trojans, malware-related and credit frauds etc.
No, our solution only processes hashed or encrypted user IDs and session IDs that cannot be associated with an individual.

As part of complying with GDPR requirements, Group-IB takes the necessary organizational and technical measures to develop, maintain, and provide the Fraud Protection solution.
The legitimate interests of a controller (in accordance with Article 6 and Recital 47 EU GDPR) provide a legal basis for the processing of data subjects’ personal data while using the Fraud Protection solution.
To protect your website(s), you simply need to add our Web Snippet to your site. The Web Snippet is a client module that is built into the protected application, and from the moment the first page of the application is loaded, it transmits indicators of compromise, the behavioral characteristics of the user, and the environment in which the application is running to the server-side of the Fraud Protection.
To protect your mobile application(s), you simply need to add our SDK to your mobile application. Integrating the Mobile SDK into a mobile application does not require changing the application’s logic.
The Mobile SDK is a client module built into the protected mobile application. From the moment the application is loaded, it transmits indicators of compromise, the behavioral characteristics of the user, and the environment in which the application is running to the server-side of the Fraud Protection platform.
The Mobile SDK does not transfer sensitive banking information, Personal Identifiable Information, or other confidential data. The contents and type of transferred data can be set by the customer independently when integrating the SDK into the mobile application.
The Fraud Protection solution can integrate into any Risk Management Platform that uses API. We can provide Pull and Push mode APIs.
