Summary

From phishing attacks and identify theft to money laundering and data breaches, large-scale fraud is on the rise. International criminal networks are leveraging new capabilities and more readily available identity data to steal billions every year from consumers and industry. In the US alone, losses from identity theft rose to more than $700 billion in 2020. In a global study from PwC, nearly half of businesses reported attempted fraud in the past 24 months, at a cost of $42 billion. The challenges and impacts have never been greater.
