Moving Beyond the FFIEC Guidelines

How Device Reputation Offers Protection Against
Future Security Threats

With cyber criminals becoming more innovative every day, it's no longer sufficient to protect against yesterday's threats.  Since virtually every authentication technique can be compromised, financial institutions should not rely solely on any single control for authorizing transactions, but should instead utilize a system of layered security.

Read this white paper to learn about the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council's (FFIEC) latest supplement to the Authentication in an Internet Banking Environment guidance (originally released in October 2005) and why it's important to your financial institution.

  • Learn the differences between simple device ID, complex device ID and device reputation
  • Understand how to exceed the FFIEC guidelines before January 2012
  • See how one bank effectively leverages iovation device reputation at login/authentication to reduce friction
  • Gain insight into automatically and confidently map account-to-device relationships to identify fraudsters
  • Expose the true IP of a device regardless if its hiding behind a proxy
  • Configure and weight business rules around fraud histories, geolocation, velocity, anomalies and more

Implementing iovation's device reputation service at the start of your fraud detection process will help you meet the FFIEC's compliance requirements and move beyond the latest guidelines to address future security threats.
