Delivering advanced, adaptive identity verification as AI-driven fraud expands across commercial and public sectors

Digital identity fraud is accelerating as artificial intelligence (AI) and automation become core infrastructure for modern fraud operations. It’s now easier than ever to steal, fabricate, and leverage identity information to carry out widespread attacks and bypass traditional controls.

In response, organizations across commercial and public sectors are strengthening their defenses to counter more sophisticated attacks and address fragmented legacy verification systems.

To help stay ahead of these threats, Thomson Reuters and Socure have formed a strategic partnership to deliver identity and risk intelligence at scale. By combining Socure’s RiskOS® AI platform with Thomson Reuters CLEAR data, the solution sets a new standard for identity verification. Together, they deliver industry-leading accuracy and fraud intelligence across commercial markets and federal, state, and local government agencies.
