New Account Fraud

Arkose Labs provides long-term, effective protection against fake account creations.

Detect attackers before they make an impact

Traditional fake account prevention relies on post-creation cleanup: flag suspicious patterns, investigate accounts, purge bad actors after they've already infiltrated your platform. Arkose Titan reverses the equation by imposing escalating costs at the sign-up gateway. Each defense layer compounds attacker expenses while legitimate users experience zero friction, making bulk account creation operations economically unsustainable before fraudsters establish their beachhead.

Arkose Titan for Fake Account Creation

Coordinated Intelligence Across the Stack

Arkose Titan's unified API coordinates device fingerprinting, behavioral analysis, email risk scoring and challenge-response mitigation in real time. Arkose Email Intelligence validates domain reputation, identifies disposable addresses and compromised credentials, while device signals detect emulators and virtual machines commonly used in bulk registration.

Challenge Technology Built for AI Resistance

Our next-gen challenges combine proof-of-work computation with multimodal reasoning tasks that cost attackers via LLM vision APIs, so fraud operations burn through compute budgets fast.

Device Intelligence That Remembers

Multi-layered device identification detects bulk registration patterns across device farms and emulators while behavioral biometrics distinguish genuine sign-ups from automated scripts, creating risk assessments precise enough to let legitimate users through with zero challenges.

Transparent Decisioning for Security Teams

Every authentication generates detailed telemetry: 225+ telltale rules showing why we assigned each risk score, complete device intelligence and behavioral analysis.

Consortium Intelligence Multiplier

Threat patterns identified at one customer instantly inform protection across our network, with updated detection rules reaching every customer within hours.
