Check Fraud Defender
Don’t let fraud slip through the cracks
The premier AI-powered and cloud-hosted model for fighting check fraud, Check Fraud Defender reduces the number of checks routed for manual review and can help reduce risks associated with synthetic and account fraud, forged checks, and identity theft.
Your secret weapon against check fraud
Mitek’s Check Fraud Defender service complements your existing fraud prevention processes and fraud management solutions by visually inspecting checks from all channels. Using our proprietary visual inspection model, Mitek leverages AI & machine learning to score 18 check attributes beyond account data to help with personal information and fraud protection, as well as identity theft. Reduce loss, centralize decision making, and minimize manual reviews with this check fraud prevention tool.
Experts in checks, experts in fighting fraud
With an estimated $15B in check fraud attempted per year, check fraud (this applies to counterfeit checks and online banking, as well) is on the rise. While current solutions can catch many types of check fraud and offer fraud protection, they can also trigger tedious manual processes and false positives, costing institutions time and money for additional analysts and custom data science platforms. Enter Mitek's Check Fraud Defender.
Backed by more than 35 years of expertise in digital image capture, mobile deposit and identity solutions, Mitek’s Check Defender detects forgeries and fraudulent activity otherwise missed by traditional fraud. Check Fraud Defender analyzes checks deposited from all channels – mobile deposit, in-branch and ATMs. With Check Fraud Defender’s patented computer vision technology, financial institutions have a higher degree of confidence in check fraud detection, and protecting personal information.
Business as usual and less loss
Check Fraud Defender can detect forgeries, including with online banking, missed by other fraud tools, like forged signatures, legal and courtesy amounts, and recipient name. Other check fraud prevention tools don’t catch these items until much later in the check clearing process. With terminal status feedback from all participating financial institutions, Check Fraud Defender flags future check deposits tied to stolen checks and fraudulent checks, closed accounts, and duplicate deposits.
