Identity thieves are getting more and more creative with their tactics as they try to pass for real people in order to access their bank accounts. Consequently, it is imperative for organizations to take all reasonable steps to safeguard their data and customers. The identity verification and management platform AU10TIX is one company that is at the top of its game; since 2021, it has shielded businesses against over $18 billion in commercial fraud.

Additional industries affected are banking (more than $1 billion), the sharing economy ($776 million), and cryptocurrencies and trading ($2.7 billion).


Moreover, AU10TIX has already stopped over $1.3 billion in fraud in just the first quarter of 2024. These numbers demonstrate AU10TIX's dedication to stopping fraud in all sectors of the economy and shielding companies from monetary loss.

Only one-third of the losses avoided in 2021 were due to synthetic AI-generated fraud, with classic fraud efforts being the bulk of attacks detected by the IDV suite.

The percentage of cryptocurrency fraud in the APAC area rose from roughly 15% in 2021 to over 25% in 2023.
Fake driver's licenses were one of the document categories that fraudsters exploited the most in 2021, accounting for around 60% of attacks, although that number dropped to about 30% in 2023.
In 2023, fake passports were used in 27% of attacks, compared to just 12% in 2021.



Stronger protections for client identity and personal information are necessary due to the growing risks of cybercrime and digital fraud, according to Dan Yerushalmi, CEO of AU10TIX. "We reiterate our ongoing commitment to supporting organizations in strengthening their defenses with this news. Our goal is to guarantee easy and safe access to online transactions.
