TruNarrative, the financial crime platform and decision engine has announced a new partnership with Whitepages Pro – a leading provider of complementary fraud and identity verification solutions.
Due to large scale data compromise, traditional identity and fraud checks can be easily manipulated or obtained by fraudsters, therefore it is crucial organisations are able to layer in enhanced checks for multiple, digital attributes such as email, mobile and IP.
Enriching application data with further verification is an increasingly important defence against cyber crime, and most effectively as part of an overall layered, unified approach. Companies across many sectors, recognise using multiple data sources and being able to cross reference easily is a much more comprehensive and robust approach to onboarding and fraud prevention strategy. Both Whitepages Pro and TruNarrative share this core value.
The partnership will help TruNarrative customers build a customisable risk score of their consumers, using real-time global identity data, machine learning, and network insights across the five-core consumer attributes of email, phone, person, address, and IP.
The integration between the TruNarrative platform and Whitepages Pro was completed using TruNarrative’s open API. Customers can build rules around granular data from Whitepages Pro to meet their individual risk profiles.
The Whitepages Pro Identity Graph database houses over 5 billion global records and provides crucial information linking digital and traditional identity attributes for TruNarrative customers. Bringing Whitepages data into the TruNarrative App store allows customers to build a layered approach and decision on multiple data sources. Firms can build a complete picture of a customer’s identity and automatically score customer interactions in a way that fits their specific risk profile.
Identifying legitimate customers, preventing fraudulent transactions, and smoothing the account creation process is now easier than ever before for TruNarrative customers as Whitepages Pro solution provides:
