PerimeterX Account Defender™
Prevent account fraud by stopping account takeover and fake account creation
PerimeterX Account Defender is a cloud-native online fraud detection solution that detects and prevents takeover of existing customer accounts, creation of new accounts using fake identities and account abuse.
Stop Account Fraud
- Detect
- Intervene
- Report
Account Defender detects illegitimate user behavior post-login, catching fraud before it happens. The solution continuously evaluates users’ post-login activities and uses behavioral signals to generate an evolving risk score. By applying continuous authentication, Account Defender identifies account abuse throughout the user journey on your website or app. The solution goes beyond the question, “Do you have the right credentials?” to address the questions, “Are you who you say you are?” and “Are you doing what you should be doing?”
Protect Your Website
Account Defender gave us real-time detection with context-aware actions that provide immediate visibility into previously unknown account takeover attacks enabling us to significantly reduce fraud and help desk calls.
