Conduct a Robust Phone Risk Assessment

Add an additional layer to your fraud prevention strategy with LexisNexis® Phone Intelligence

Phone numbers weren’t designed for security. They were never meant to be anything more than user identifiers for the telephone network. Applying them to online identification and authentication creates a host of issues. Fraudsters use compromised phone numbers to commit identity fraud and account takeover, with losses due to phone-related fraud rising sharply. So how can the utilization of a phone number as an authenticator be made more secure?

A more seamless way to reduce fraud and keep users safe

LexisNexis® Phone Intelligence—currently available in USA, Canada, United Kingdom, France and Germany with more countries potentially available upon request (please contact us for any other country you would be interested in)—is a proven solution that organizations can add to their processes to validate phone numbers, prevent fraud and improve the customer experience. Phone Intelligence leverages LexisNexis® Digital Identity Network® data in conjunction with near real time phone carrier data to deliver risk attributes and a risk assessment for a phone number in near real time. It provides answers to these important questions:

  • Is this person the account owner?
  • Does the account look compromised and could it be a case of account takeover?
  • Is there fraud, risk or suspicious behavior associated with this phone number?

Through the LexisNexis® Digital Identity Network®, Phone Intelligence Assessment has access to a vast store of valuable online activity and reputation data for millions of phone numbers, delivering insights on the phone number & associated relationships, including interactions and behavior.
