The ThreatMetrix™ Cybercrime Defender Platform is the first industry solution that integrates sophisticated malware detection and advanced device identification technologies in a single, unified platform.
We think that this unified approach to cybersecurity is a game changer. By integrating malware detection and device identification with shared, centralized intelligence, ThreatMetrix delivers the unique ability to protect the integrity of entire online transactions.
The ThreatMetrix Cybercrime Defender Platform integrates security and fraud into one overall context – increasing the effectiveness and visibility of each individual part.
Protecting online transactions, accounts and identities
Securing an online transaction requires layered defenses:
- Malware detection: Discover any malware interfering with the transaction session itself, such as Man-in-the-Browser attacks
- Malware protection: Ensure that any malware on the customer’s computer is prevented from interfering with the transaction (key loggers, etc.)
- Device identification: From the website perspective, ensure that the person is who they claim to be, and not impersonating someone else with stolen credentials or credit cards
- Device and identity reputation: Get first-time protection against known or suspected cybercriminals in real-time
- Enterprise policy engine: Provide centralized intelligence and control across all customer interactions from enrolments to logins to payments
Each individual component is necessary, but not sufficient, to transaction protection. When you put them together and share intelligence between them, you can at last protect the integrity of the online transaction. And that’s what the ThreatMetrix Cybercrime Defender Platform does.
Close the gaps for cybercriminals
Most businesses deploy device identification and malware detection (if any) as separate solutions from different vendors. The insight uncovered resides in different silos, and doesn’t deliver a common view of devices across systems. This makes it easier for cybercriminals to slip through the gaps in coverage. The overall strategy is inefficient, costly and incomplete.
The ThreatMetrix Cybercrime Defender Platform goes beyond combining malware detection and device identification – it supplements the combined solution with intelligence and analysis across the platform and throughout a global network of sites sharing fraud information.
By choosing an integrated solution, you gain the benefits of unified intelligence, simplified implementation and deployment, and better overall coverage. Most importantly, using integrated malware and device identification lets you protect the integrity of online transactions and identities.
