Adding security layers to your user acquisition forms or to your payment forms is the best way to ensure a safe user experience. But there are many different malicious attacks to prevent — identity theft, automated attacks, password database leaks, account takeovers, fraud…
With so many open fronts, it may seem difficult to safeguard your forms, but we’ve got you covered. We’ve come up with the ultimate security toolkit in order to tackle all these issues and offer the most secure experience to your users.
Verifying the identity of users before granting access to certain actions is key to prevent account takeovers (ATOs), fraud, identity theft, and many more.

That is why we recommend applying it only when a risk is detected or to safeguard sensitive actions.
These companies can help you detect risk in order to implement additional security measures, like risk-based multi-factor verification.

Blocking access to bots, spam accounts or automated malicious actions can be tackled with tools that differentiate human behavior from bot behavior. These are just some of them.
