AI’s rapid evolution has unleashed deepfake attacks and synthetic-identity fraud while fraudsters increasingly target the consumer as the weakest link in the verification process. At the same time, FIs struggle to balance security demands against customer experience expectations.

This research examines the fraud-prevention solution landscape across four key threat categories: first-party fraud, third-party identity theft, synthetic-identity fraud, and AI-enabled fraud. The report profiles 12 vendors: ACI Worldwide, BioCatch, Experian, Feedzai, FICO, LexisNexis Risk Solutions, Mitek Systems, Sardine, SentiLink, Socure, Veriff, and XTN Cognitive Security. It assesses their capabilities across document verification, device intelligence, behavioral biometrics, eCBSV connectivity, and synthetic- and first-party fraud scoring.
