Mitek presents MiVIP, a solution to provide faster and more secure digital access

One of the main concerns of companies in Spain is fraud. In part, because as new technologies emerge, so do new techniques and resources to commit cybercrime. According to INCIBE’s latest 2022 Cybersecurity Balance, over the past year a total of 118,820 cybersecurity incidents have been managed, almost 9% more than the previous year.

The latest Mitek study indicates that 53% of companies indicate that they have suffered more attempts and cases of fraud compared to last year, while 40% comment that the amount of economic losses have also been greater. For the same reason, the majority of Spanish companies (62%) have increased their cybersecurity budget in 2022, according to a Deloitte study.

The sector most affected by fraud continues to be financial, whether they are consumer finance companies, traditional banking, automotive finance companies or micro-loan companies. According to data collected by Finanso, 56% of Europeans have experienced at least one type of fraud in the last two years. Of those, a third were victims of identity theft. Thus, identity theft has become the second most common type of fraud in Europe.

As consumers conduct more transactions online than ever before, identity verification has become essential to ensure secure digital access. In fact, the origin of the fraud is in the first place identity theft, in more than half of the cases for 40% of companies surveyed by Mitek, and an invented online identity in more than half of the cases for 33 % of companies.

That is why more and more companies are investing in solutions for identity document validation, identity verification and/or proof of life, and device analysis and verification, among other systems. Respondents indicate that biometrics and device analysis are the most valued tools, above other more traditional solutions.
