Our experts will:

Discuss the strategic decisions executive and security leaders in fintech must address during this time of crisis
Uncover the mercenary schemes and technical tools bad actors are deploying, and
Identify practical ways security and anti-fraud teams can deliver outsized impact to stop attacks, reduce costs, and restore customer trust.

Supercharging Your Threat Intelligence With the Tools you Already Have

Cybercriminals and fraudsters are increasingly exploiting advanced technologies and business workflows, making cybercrime a high-return investment. One prevalent scheme is SMS toll fraud, or international revenue sharing fraud (IRSF), which targets businesses' text message-based digital identity processes like one-time passwords (OTP) for sign-ins and registrations. Global organizations reliant on SMS workflows face significant financial losses and reduced efficiency; in 2023 alone, businesses lost $39 billion to SMS toll fraud, according to the Communications Fraud Control Association. CFOs often notice this threat first through large bills – but quick, measured responses can save money, preserve reputation, reduce cleanup costs and enhance shareholder value.

Stream the webinar to:

- Understand the impact of SMS toll fraud on your business.
- Learn prevention and mitigation strategies you can apply.
- Develop resilient financial strategies for your enterprise against SMS toll fraud.
