Credit Union Implements FraudMAP(R) to Protect Growing Online Channel
LOS ALTOS, Calif., May 19 (allCUnews) -- Guardian Analytics, a provider of online account fraud prevention [1] software for the financial services industry, announced today that Truliant Federal Credit Union of Winston-Salem, N.C. has deployed FraudMAP(R) to proactively protect member assets from the growing organized cybercrime threat. Truliant selected FraudMAP for its proven behavioral activity modeling capability that detects online account compromises before financial fraud can be committed.
Truliant Federal Credit Union serves more than 180,000 members and over 850 companies and their employees throughout North Carolina, South Carolina, Ohio and Virginia. Due to the expansion and strategic importance of the online banking channel to deliver advanced services to their geographically dispersed members, the credit union recognized the need to provide its members with the highest level of security possible. It was essential that the solution be implemented without disrupting their existing online banking infrastructure.
"FraudMAP was easily integrated with our Digital Insight Internet Banking platform and immediately alerted us to attempted fraud," said Bob West, chief information officer, Truliant Federal Credit Union. "FraudMAP's behavior-based analysis capability makes our anti-fraud efforts proactive without requiring any changes to our online banking infrastructure or inconveniencing members."
"We are delighted to add Truliant Federal Credit Union to our growing list of FraudMAP customers. First generation approaches to protecting the online channel have proven insufficient to the evolving threat," said Terry Austin, president and CEO, Guardian Analytics. "Financial institutions such as Truliant need a solution like FraudMAP to automatically detect new threats without requiring rules development and maintenance."
