Using headshots from IDs or selfies, Fraud Shield creates a ‘bad actor’ list that strengthens fraud defenses across all customer touchpoints—from onboarding to account recovery.
Deployable in any channel and use case, it seamlessly integrates into your fraud prevention strategy.
How Fraud Shield Aids in Fraud Detection
Often, organizations are hit hard by fraudsters who can beat a company’s identity verification and security protocols: repeat offenders do significant damage, often within a short timeframe. Fraud Shield meets these needs by offering strong protection against repeat fraudsters.

Biographical Enrollment
Fraud detection software today has to be as sophisticated as the fraudsters themselves. Often times, bad actors will use the information from a real ID to impersonate someone else. AuthenticID has the software necessary to scan the face of the person in the ID and a selfie to ensure ID validity, ensuring your identity verification processes are fraudproof.

Bad Actor Watchlists
With AuthenticID, fraudsters never get a second chance to try again. When a user tries to present an ID that is a fake, their IP address, name on the ID, ID number and selfie are saved. We have an ever-expanding network of bad actors that help our users and customers prevent fraud now and in the future.

Bad Document Watchlists
Fraud Shield’s Bad Document screening utilizes proprietary technology to manage a fraudulent document watchlist and unbiased, AI-based decisioning. Cut out the risk of identity verification processes with Fraud Shield. The Watchlist is updated in seconds so fraudsters don’t have time to submit multiple documents.


Fraud Detection and Blacklisting
How do all of these features come together to protect users from identity theft and cyberattacks? Here’s how Fraud Shield works:
- A user attempts to register or sign up for a service and must provide identity verification.
- With AuthenticID software, they will upload a government-issued identification document.
- Then, the user will submit a selfie from their phone or computer.
- Our facial recognition software will detect whether the images match in real-time.
Our identity proofing and fraud prevention solutions are powered by machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) technology, cutting bias and human error, and blocking fraudulent activity.

Bad actors often use the information of real individuals to create fake IDs, a challenging fraud method to stop. Scanning the face on the ID is critical for detection, as a person’s face cannot be changed easily.
A selfie is encouraged as part of Fraud Shield, so that our facial recognition technology can flag the headshot or selfie as a selfie mismatch to the database when new transactions occur.

AuthenticID’s Bad Document screening utilizes proprietary technology to manage a bad document watchlist for decisioning. When a bad document is confirmed, a customer can enroll the document number and its jurisdiction onto a watchlist.
The watchlist update takes effect immediately after document enrollment, with no lag for multiple fraudulent document attempts.
