How does device fingerprinting help prevent fraud?

Device fingerprinting plays a critical role in fraud prevention by creating a unique, persistent Device ID for every device accessing a platform. It collects technical signals from hardware, browsers, and networks, combining them into a stable fingerprint that remains consistent across sessions. These device fingerprints are then analyzed against historical activity and risk patterns to identify suspicious behavior and score high-risk actions across apps and websites, allowing businesses to detect and prevent fraud in real time.

Can SHIELD identify repeat fraudsters across multiple accounts?

YES. SHIELD is the only solution in the market that is able to persistently and accurately identify the same physical device across multiple accounts and applications. If a device appears on App A and App B, SHIELD recognizes it as the same underlying device, even across separate environments. This capability makes SHIELD uniquely effective for multi-account fraud prevention that no other vendor can. It’s especially useful for E-KYC and IDV vendors, who require such capability to identify repeat offenders across their client applications.

Is SHIELD suitable for fintech and marketplaces?

It helps digital banks, neobanks, and platforms build customer trust while detecting and stopping fraud in real time.
