Fraudsters are searching for their next payday. Don’t let it be at members’ expense.

To effectively suss out risky identities, you have to take a holistic view, examining the many ways people engage with your agency and the nature of transactions. There may be a log-in from an office desktop to check a balance. A sign-in from a mobile phone to change an address. A statement downloaded to a home computer. Or a phone call to a representative to ask a clarifying question.

Managing all these interactions across channels and devices can make fraud hard to spot, especially when the transactions are “faceless” and some actions (i.e., asking a question) pose more risk than others (i.e., changing a beneficiary). You need to dig in to detect and stop complex fraud attempts — but you also need to ensure trusted interactions remain effortless for both the member and your staff.

The answer? Tap into physical and digital identity intelligence that helps you understand a person and their risk in context.

The person view:

• Leverage our massive data sets including 84 billion physical identity records from 10,000+ sources — enough to cover a person’s history over decades. Our one-of-a-kind LexID® helps bring these expansive pieces together, resolving them down to a unique identity with 99.99% precision.
• Our identity capabilities extend to networks of individuals. Identify not only the direct “member” but also their relatives and associates — which may lead you to complex, coordinated efforts or additional risk factors that might not be apparent when looking at an identity in isolation.

The digital view:

• The LexisNexis Digital Identity Network gives you access to shared global intelligence from over 6,000 contributing organizations across industries like financial services, e-commerce retail and telecom. It’s a front-row view of high-risk behavior happening elsewhere that may indicate a higher risk for the identity attempting to access your system.
• Get a magnified look at the digital footprint. For example, our LexID Digital helps your agency confidently and consistently recognize a user across multiple devices, physical addresses, email addresses and more. We also have tools that shed light on location and identity cloaking services such as hidden proxies and VPNs — as well as anomalous device behaviors such as inconsistent swipe patterns, keystrokes, shortcuts and the like.

Make the insight meaningful and actionable:

• Our robust analysis and visualization tools make sense of all the data points. See the “big picture” trends and patterns so you can address immediate risks and stay on top of emerging threats.

Omnichannel experiences are expected to be speedy and seamless. How can you make quick decisions and allow swift actions without a clear understanding of the risk? With LexisNexis Risk Solutions, you have a partner behind the scenes, ready to raise red flags. Our solutions bring identities into sharper view, while also clueing you in to risky behaviors, the presence of malware and bots and much more.
