Automate Fraud Prevention With the Tungsten Fraud Network

Globally, businesses suffer billions of dollars in losses every year due to fraud. While companies face external and internal threats, the external threat environment has grown increasingly sophisticated and dangerous. Organizations urgently need to safeguard their systems and protect user data or suffer financial and reputation impacts. Leveraging the automated systems possible with the Tungsten Fraud Network and Marketplace solutions can help manage these risks.

By turning to advanced technology, companies can work to counter the similarly advanced nature of today’s threats. Solutions such as Authentic ID and Resistant AI integrate directly into the Tungsten TotalAgility platform for intelligent workflow automation, bringing speed and reliability into a space where such elements are essential.

Consider why today’s threat landscape demands faster and more reliable solutions, then highlight how your organization could respond to these issues.

Today’s Fraud Threats are Increasingly Diverse

In the past, fraud threats mostly appeared in phishing attacks that aimed to support taking over privileged accounts. Today, identity fraud takes on far more forms than basic social engineering. According to a 2025 report by Authentic ID, the percentage of fraudulent transactions affecting businesses in 2024 rose to over 2%—its highest point in three years.

Digital identities are under threat in more ways than ever before and include avenues such as:

• Fraud in the workplace.
• Highly targeted and ultra-personalized social engineering scams.
• Payment fraud.
• Account takeovers.
• Faked identity documents, forged IDs, and AI-generated images.

Of these, false and forged documents are among the most pressing concerns and an area where organizations should strongly consider technology to combat the threat.

Companies Can’t Ignore the Threat of Falsified Documents

The generative AI tools that allow individuals to manufacture convincing but fake identity documents, images and videos are estimated to drive nearly $40 billion in losses for companies by 2027, a staggering increase of almost 32% annually. According to the survey by Authentic ID, roughly half (46%) of responding businesses said they’d seen YOY increases in fraud threats driven by AI. Of those, 96% see this as a serious threat to the company.

Some 58% of businesses in 2024 reported fake physical documents, an increase of nearly 10% from 2022—and the problem is only worsening. Some 47% discovered synthetic identities, which blend real information with fake documents and pictures to enable financial crimes. There are many occasions when users must present identity documents, and this process is ripe for potential fraud. Places where you might encounter falsified identity information include:

• During account openings.
• When confirming a high-value transaction.
• Know-your-customer workflows.
• User onboarding, and more.

These are sensitive events and workflows that often require speed and functionality at scale to deliver effective outcomes. That creates a serious challenge for organizations, as manually verifying information is tedious and prone to mistakes.

With an automation platform such as TotalAgility and solutions that integrate directly into that environment, it’s possible to deploy anti-fraud measures that deliver reliable outcomes without negatively impacting process speeds or user experiences.

Verifying IDs Confidently With AuthenticID

AuthenticID delivers a highly robust means of automating identity document verification in security-sensitive workflows. Using a combination of advanced deep machine learning and artificial intelligence, AuthenticID capably detects when an identity document does not match the expected parameters. This feature simplifies stopping bad actors, especially when factoring in AuthenticID’s capabilities for checking information against known fraud watch lists.

Ideal for account openings and enrollments, AuthenticID is also very well suited to daily tasks involving biometric re-authentication of users in real time. As a result, it’s trivial to implement solutions such as verification for high-value and card-not-present transactions. Easily verify ID documents from around the world with support for more than 200 countries.

With the free connector to TotalAgility available in the Tungsten Marketplace, businesses can create a seamless process for ingesting, extracting and verifying the reliability of ID information in any workflow. With an observed 42% increase in fraudulent ID submissions from 2023 to 2024, the right tools can make a difference today.

Using Resistant AI to Safeguard Documents

Document fraud is also an increasing problem. It’s not just driver’s licenses or state ID cards at risk of forgery. Today, voter IDs, passports, birth certificates and other highly sensitive documents are susceptible to potential fraud. Other documents, such as bank statements, invoices and financial documents, can be a more direct route for stealing from a business.

Resistant AI helps companies push back against these threats with automated workflows that can red-flag potentially fraudulent documents and stop them from moving forward in a process. With a connector to this service on the Marketplace, TotalAgility can pass information directly to Resistant AI for anti-fraud scanning through more than 500 signal detectors. Straight-through processing ensures that verified documents return to the workflow for the next steps with almost no interruption.

Potential fraudulent documents go to a human review and trigger alert notifications. Detailed and readable breakdowns of the detected fraud signals allow humans to determine whether the risk is real and to make smarter choices about the next steps. Your organization can better automate this mission-critical process with fraud solutions like this and Authentic ID.

Detect AI-Generated Images With Attestiv

Another innovative solution to prevent fraud caused by AI-generated and other faked photos comes from Attestiv, which offers a cloud-level platform for digital photo verification. Leveraging a proprietary and patented AI technology, this real-time photo analysis tool integrates directly into TotalAgility workflows to automate fraud-fighting efforts. With Attestiv, organizations can reduce manual review, saving time while shoring up fraud protection with a more robust solution.

Image data from TotalAgility in PNG or JPG files can pass seamlessly to the Attestiv service, which uses multiple models to detect image tampering, signs of AI generation, and other signals that could indicate a fraudulent image. With enterprise-level security and privacy, the Attestiv solution is ideal even for KYC, AML and customer onboarding processes.

Upon completing its analysis, Attestiv provides results along with a detailed, easy-to-understand report explaining the reasoning for the decision. A visual analysis lets users see where and why fraud signals were located in an image, allowing faster decision-making. It’s another cost-effective way to prevent bad actors from committing fraud against organizations, from detecting deepfakes to forged driver’s licenses etc.

Leverage Modern Solutions for Today’s Threat Environment

Today’s threat actors continue to deploy more sophisticated tools and techniques to destroy security protocols and steal sensitive information. Matching that level of sophistication is essential for companies today. With Tungsten Marketplace solutions such as Resistant AI and Authentic ID integrated into automated TotalAgility workflows, your teams can deploy anti-fraud measures that work in real time and at scale.

Don’t leave the door open to potential fraudsters. With the Tungsten Fraud Network supporting your operations, you can narrow the window of opportunity for bad actors to cause harm to the organization. Learn more about these solutions and others in the Tungsten Marketplace today.
