The Perfect Storm

Fraudsters are turning to generative artificial intelligence (AI) for swindling millions of dollars from unwitting victims and government agencies. It’s now easier than ever to bypass legacy document authentication and “liveness checks” to fraudulently claim benefits with readily available AI tools.

Fraud used to primarily involve stolen or forged physical documents like wallets, birth certificates, or personal identifiable information (PII). However, the advent of AI has given rise to a new form of deception called “deepfakes” – digital manipulations of photos, audio, or videos that convincingly replace one person’s likeness with another.

Generative AI is advancing the perpetration of identity fraud faster than ever. With the exposed data vulnerabilities, the issue is critical when it comes to preventing nearly perfect identity imposter fraud.

No government program is safe.

What can government agencies that oversee critical do? A potential power lies in turning AI systems on themselves to keep AI fraud in check by detecting patterns and anomalies that are often overlooked by humans.

AI technology relies on static data points that are readily available. Invoking dynamic identity intelligence provides the strong and superior evidence needed to verify identity to the requirements of government agencies and the people they serve.
