3D Secure (3DS) Card Payments Authorization Enhancement

The growth of e-commerce necessitates robust security solutions like 3D Secure to secure against Card-not-present (CNP) fraud.

Developed as an additional layer of security for online credit cards through the introduction of multi-factor authorization (MFA), 3D Secure often brings friction and a high abandonment rate. ThreatMark provides an ultimate tool to decide whether there is a reason for MFA, improving customer experience without jeopardizing detection capabilities.

Enhance your 3D Secure
Card Payments Authorization and reduce friction.

Involving two steps to verify a credit cardholder’s identity, 3D Secure introduced a secure authentication process for payment gateways following the boom in online transaction. Despite its effectiveness in preventing fraud, this process often results in additional steps and delays, leading to customer frustration and a higher cart abandonment rate during online transactions.

ThreatMark’s behavioral intelligence reduces the reliance on these additional steps. By analyzing device reputation and subtle behavior markers that can successfully identify non-human behavior (scripted access) or devices compromised by financial malware.
