The financial technology sector is experiencing a surge of strategic collaborations and innovative solutions to enhance security and compliance.

From strengthening know your customer (KYC) and anti-money laundering (AML) processes to introducing advanced biometric identification features, companies are making significant strides to safeguard their operations and customer transactions. ComplyCube and Signicat have each added capabilities to benefit regulated businesses, while Identomat has announced two new clients, and iDenfy has revealed a customer win.

ComplyCube Adds Trust Center to KYC, AML Platform

ComplyCube has launched a Trust Center to enhance its identity verification, KYC, and AML platform, helping clients navigate complex regulatory scenarios.

The company highlights that compliance failures cost businesses over 2.7 times more than maintaining regulatory obligations, and those with robust compliance programs incur 30 percent lower costs for security incidents.

The new Trust Center features a real-time compliance dashboard and a resource hub with documents, certification information, and regulatory guidelines. It also offers incident reporting and tracking.

“Clients and partners can find answers to many data protection questions, view active controls, and request documents for due diligence,” says ComplyCube Business & Partnerships Manager Joshua Dent. “It’s great to see this platform live following our recent certifications, such as UK DIATF, ISO 9001, PAD Level 2 ISO 30107-3, and ISO 27001:2022 upgrade.”

Signicat Rolls Out Selfie Biometric Authentication

Signicat has introduced biometric facial authentication to its MobileID platform to enhance the security of mobile apps for financial and regulated service clients.

Signicat’s Face Authentication includes a 3D liveness check and face match, effectively protecting against fraud involving photos, deepfake videos, and other spoofs.

Identity fraud driven by AI is a growing threat, accounting for over 42 percent of total attacks, according to a recent Signicat report.

“As fraud tactics evolve, so must our solutions,” says Simone Andersson, Signicat Product Manager for Mobile Identity. “This new feature is a testament to our dedication to staying ahead of the curve and ensuring our clients can operate securely in the digital landscape. Our MobileID solution is PSD2 compliant and meets all requirements from regulated sectors.”

NovaPay and WARD Ops Select Identomat

NovaPay, a provider of online and offline financial services in Ukraine, has partnered with Identomat to improve its KYC and AML processes. This collaboration aims to bolster NovaPay’s ability to offer secure and efficient financial services.

Identomat’s AI-powered technology supports remote identity verification, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements in over 200 countries and mitigating financial transaction risks. In just six months, NovaPay and Identomat have already served nearly a quarter of a million customers.

David Lomiashvili, CEO of Identomat, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, highlighting the company’s commitment to optimizing identity verification processes. Identomat has passed several security and compliance evaluations, including iBeta level 2, ISO/IEC 30107-3, and ISO/IEC 27001. Together, NovaPay and Identomat aim to set new standards in customer verification and fraud prevention in Ukraine’s financial industry.
