PORTLAND, OR — (Marketwired) — 12/18/14 — , the trusted source for mobile and online fraud prevention, will outline concrete ways to safeguard businesses– mobile transactions from fraud in an upcoming webinar. Scott Olson, iovation–s Vice President of Product, will host the webinar entitled “” on Tuesday, Jan. 27, at 9 a.m. PST.
Mobile transactions protected by iovation have doubled from 2012 to 2014, increasing from 15 to 30 percent. Mobile traffic by some iovation clients last quarter was even higher, averaging 38 percent for insurers, 33 percent for retailers and 29 percent for financial services providers. During the holiday shopping season, that number spiked to 40 percent on some days. From Black Friday to Cyber Monday, 0.67 percent of all online transactions were fraudulent as opposed to 0.37 percent of all online transactions conducted from mobile devices being fraudulent.
“Lower fraud rates in mobile versus online doesn–t necessarily mean low impact,” said Olson. “If your mobile customer is compromised, the friction level is high and your brand reputation suffers.”
In this webinar, iovation will discuss mobile trends and risks, how its clients have identified and stopped mobile fraud, use cases showing the role device-based intelligence plays in stopping mobile fraud, and a fraud prevention strategy checklist for mobile.
