Synthetic identity fraud is one of the fastest-growing types of financial crime. At the same time, combining AI-powered voice biometric & behavioral analytics systems is considered one of the safest data protection methods in modern-day cybersecurity. In this panel, we discuss the pros and cons of this approach, e.g., in banking and financial services. Panelists share key considerations and provide insight into the neural nets, and the Dell-NVIDIA technologies that can help prevent fraud and identity theft.
