BioCatch Ltd. offers a range of products designed to protect various stages of digital transactions that monitor and analyze user behaviour during the account creation process to detect potential fraudsters who may be using stolen identities or synthetic identities. The solution identifies unusual behavioural patterns that may indicate an account has been compromised, allowing for real-time intervention before fraudulent transactions can occur. BioCatch's technology helps financial institutions identify mule accounts, which are used by criminals to launder money.
