Noting that while the actual incidence of fraud for electronic payments is low, the company said FraudNet provides a powerful solution for financial institutions to lower fraud rates even further. “The FraudNet service is part of a suite of fraud prevention solutions offered by Fiserv that helps detect and mitigate fraud from log-in authentication to back-end payment processing, resulting in a lower cost of ownership in the online channel for financial institutions,” Fiserv reported.
