Predict risk connected with physical addresses
Stop identity fraud and verify 15-20% more addresses than competing credit-bureau vendors, with Address RiskScore, part of Socure’s industry-leading identity verification and fraud prevention platform.
Reducing friction in the fight against identity fraud and account takeover
Addresses form a critical part of a consumer’s identity footprint, impacting key touchpoints from account opening through the entire customer lifecycle. However, fraudsters frequently exploit fake, stolen, or invalid physical addresses to conduct account takeovers. Socure’s Address RiskScores establish address-level risk and its correlation to a holistic identity profile, empowering businesses to deflect identity fraud attacks without adding friction to legitimate customers.
Key questions
Risk scores are a critical component of a dynamic, layered risk strategy powered by the Sigma Fraud Suite.
