Why Fintech Data Security Matters
Payment Fraud Can Erode Trust and Compliance
In the fintech industry, real-time transactions come with real-time risk, especially when it comes to payment fraud and false declines. Our adaptive fraud detection ensures every transaction is evaluated without disrupting legitimate users.
Fintech Onboarding is Vulnerable to Fake Accounts and Bonus Abuse
Fraudsters exploit digital onboarding flows digital onboarding flows to create synthetic identities, bypass KYC checks, and abuse signup incentives. CrossClassify prevents fake account creation through layered identity, device, and behavioral analysis.
Traditional Cybersecurity Misses Post-Login Threats
Most fintech fraud happens after login—via social engineering, session hijacking, or silent fraud. CrossClassify delivers post-login behavioral analysis to detect risky behavior even from verified users.
Bots Are Exploiting Fintech APIs at Scale
Fraudsters automate attacks on fintech APIs to test stolen cards, scrape pricing, or simulate activity. CrossClassify detects bot fraud in real-time across APIs, mobile, and web traffic.

Behavior Analysis for Transaction and Login Fraud
Fintech platforms face evolving threats like session hijacking, transactional fraud, and device spoofing. Our platform applies behavioral analysis to detect anomalies in typing, swiping, and mouse movements that flag suspicious sessions. This strengthens fraud prevention during high-risk moments like fund transfers or loan applications.
Geo Analysis for Fintech Transaction Integrity
Fintechs often operate across borders, making them vulnerable to IP spoofing, proxy abuseproxy abuse, and geographic fraud patterns. CrossClassify correlates IP, device location, and user behavior to flag abnormal access from high-risk or unexpected regions. This helps financial apps detect geo anomalies in login attempts, wire transfers, and payment processing.
Link Analysis to Uncover Fraud Rings
Fraud in fintech often involves interconnected users, shared devices, or repeat patterns in identity usage. Our link analysis engine connects the dots between accounts, IPs, and devices to expose bot networks, fraud rings, and synthetic identity clusters. This is essential for detecting collusive behavior in digital banking and fintech apps.
