Global Fintech Boosts Good Traffic 10%, Stops Crypto Fraud
A major global fintech platform enables individuals and institutions to trade over 60 cryptocurrencies while navigating highly regulated financial environments.
THE CHALLENGES
Escalating Multi-Vector Fraud: The exchange was targeted by both sophisticated automated bots and human-driven fraud farms executing fake account creation and account takeover (ATO).
High-Stakes Risks: Beyond colossal financial losses, the platform faced increased risk of regulatory non-compliance and money laundering through the abuse of dormant accounts.
User Experience Disruption: Existing security measures were failing to curb attacks, leading to friction for legitimate traders and overall customer dissatisfaction.
THE ARKOSE TITAN SOLUTION
Holistic Account Security: Implemented Arkose Titan as part of a comprehensive security stack that identifies threats from the edge to the sign-in flow, integrating with existing CDN, CIAM and SIEM solutions.
Dynamic Intelligence: Utilized AI-powered, multi-layered assessments of device, network and behavioral signals to distinguish genuine users from malicious actors in real time.
Frictionless Verification: Employed invisible “Proof of Work” (PoW) background challenges to verify device authenticity without requiring user action, preserving a seamless experience.
Sabotaging Attacker ROI: Deployed adaptive, AI-resistant visual challenges that increased the cost and effort for fraudsters, making attacks economically unviable.
