Fraud Solution Profile

 Entersekt provides a world-class authentication platform that enables financial institutions (FIs) to support a unified, cross-channel strategy using Context AwareTM   Authentication. Our platform provides the most advanced silent and active technologies, applying extensive risk data and fraud-resistant authentication options to prevent fraud, optimize customer experience, and increase transaction success. Our solutions include passwordless and app-free methods, including browser authentication, biometrics and passkeys, as well as mobile app, white label and OTP methods.

 

Entersekt is the only provider of Context Aware Authentication that enables visibility across all banking and payments channels, and applies real-time insights about the customer across those channels to increase frictionless interactions or preferred step-up challenges, when needed. 

 

Entersekt’s Context Aware Authentication enables FIs to unify security and customer authentication preferences across account logins, high-risk transactions, and 3-D Secure (3DS) payment card transactions. Within split seconds, Context Aware Authentication processes hundreds of real-time data points about a customer’s device, behavior, and prior actions, together with contextual understanding of what the user is trying to achieve to determine whether the risk level warrants a frictionless response, outright decline, or step-up challenge. When an active challenge is indicated, Context Aware Authentication taps into customer preferences, expressed in other channels, to send the appropriate challenge message, ensuring a consistent experience originating from your organization regardless of the channel.   

 

By integrating our future-proof platform with its single API, FIs can not only reduce the cost of fraud, but also increase transaction success rates and deliver consistent, secure, personalized customer experiences.
