Authentication Services provides the information you need to instantly verify customer identity and prevent fraud while conducting secure transactions online and at call centers.

Reduce fraud losses from identity theft

Instant access to critical data helps you verify identity and prevent potential fraud.

Streamline processing for increased profits

Automated, consistent and objective decisions enable faster approvals, minimize referral queues and maximize usage of staff time.

Provide a secure environment to increase customer confidence and satisfaction

Utilize one of three levels based on your business objectives. All levels can be seamlessly integrated into your Web site, call center or point-of-sale environments.

Adhere to new FFIEC guidelines

Reliably authenticate customers when they’re accessing your Internet-based services. Financial institutions are encouraged to adopt two-factor authentication methods which can include “out-of-wallet” authentication. The Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) recommends two-factor authentication as the security mechanism to access customer information or the movement of funds to other parties.
