- A list of compromised data
- Known fraud scenarios
- Malware infection detection
- Transaction amount
- Device/software access
Help Fast-track Compliance with Pre-configured Rules
Anti-fraud solutions with machine learning facilitate compliance out-of-the-box
A fraud detection and prevention tool should be able to detect fraud and ensure compliance right out-of-the-box. Pre-configured rule sets and predictive machine learning models tuned for specific applications, like mobile, online, and corporate banking, help accelerate compliance with local and industry regulations.
Protect against Mobile Threats
Help fulfill requirements for strong authentication and app security
Globally, regulators are introducing new security requirements to better protect mobile banking and mobile apps. Compliance can include a combination of advanced security measures such as:
- Dynamic linking
- Protection against app cloning
- Strong customer authentication
- App shielding
OneSpan can help you implement risk-mitigating controls such as tokenization, encryption for storage and transmission of data, and anti-malware countermeasures.
Capture Detailed Audit Trails
Audit trails help prove compliant practices were followed
In online and mobile processes such as account opening, loans, mortgages, and e-disclosure delivery, capture a detailed record of exactly what the applicant saw and did as part of the process, including steps such as:
- Digital identity verification
- Consent to processing personal information
- Signing financial agreements and other contracts
Automate to Enforce a Consistent Process
Strengthen compliance by automating digital agreements
Financial agreements and contracts can be digitized to improve customer experience and reduce the risks of a paper-based workflow. Manual processes result in errors such as missing signatures, which expose an organization to risk.
Through e-signature technology, OneSpan automates signing workflows and enforces business rules. This ensures documents are submitted without errors or omissions.
More than half of the world’s top 100 global banks rely on OneSpan to help strengthen compliance
