DFCU Financial Strengthens Fraud Defenses with ThreatMark

November 18, 2025

The credit union reports a swift decline in fraud and improved efficiency following deployment of ThreatMark’s Behavioral Intelligence Platform.

DFCU Financial, one of the top-performing credit unions in the U.S., has partnered with ThreatMark, a leader in behavioral intelligence and fraud disruption, to enhance fraud detection and further strengthen its commitment to member security.

This announcement comes as organizations worldwide spotlight fraud prevention during International Fraud Awareness Week (Nov 16–22), reinforcing the importance of proactive measures to combat evolving threats.

By leveraging ThreatMark, DFCU Financial now benefits from advanced behavioral intelligence that proactively combats fraud across all digital channels. For financial institutions and credit unions, the integration offers a fast, low-friction, path to modern fraud prevention, with simplified implementation and accelerated time to value.

As account takeovers in the U.S. have tripled in the past five years, and identity theft reports now exceed 40,000 per month, DFCU Financial is taking decisive action to protect its members. Using ThreatMark’s behavioral and device-based fraud prevention technology, the credit union can disrupt fraudulent activity in real time.

The solution continuously monitors user behavior, device signals, session patterns, and transactions to distinguish genuine members from potential fraudsters. This approach effectively detects synthetic identities, account takeovers, and authorized push payment scams while minimizing false positives and maintaining a smooth user experience.

ThreatMark’s comprehensive fraud coverage and seamless deployment enabled robust protection for our members in a very short time,” said Yuri Rosochacki, Vice President of Risk Management & Compliance at DFCU Financial. “The ThreatMark Platform began delivering actionable intelligence almost immediately, reducing workload, minimizing friction, and strengthening member protection. The entire team, from sales to delivery, has been responsive and knowledgeable, and since going live, we’ve already seen a notable reduction in fraud.”

We’re proud to partner with DFCU Financial, whose dedication to member security sets a strong example in the industry,” said Michal Tresner, CEO and Founder. “We’re working together to strengthen fraud defenses and continue innovating to stay ahead of evolving threats.”
