VeriSign® Identity Protection Fraud Detection Service provides an invisible means of delivering proactive protection to consumers. Using advanced anomaly detection technology, the service detects fraudulent logins and transactions in real-time without affecting legitimate user's web experience.

The solution takes a self-learning approach to fraud detection, adapting to customer usage habits unique to that individual. Using policies and pattern recognition technology, the service flags potentially fraudulent activities based on known types of fraud and behaviors not associated with the user. Because the service is self-learning, it can adapt to changing criminal behavior without manual intervention. This non-intrusive approach does not require any change to a Web site and remains invisible to the consumer until a fraud is detected.
