Vodafone Identity Hub

Your online channels secured

Growth in mobile e-commerce – combined with a rise in identity theft and fraud means that it’s more important than ever for businesses to be able to verify user identity via the mobile channel.

By leveraging Vodafone’s data to verify end user attributes, signals can be used as indicators of account takeover or compromise. This offers businesses seamless user authentication, helping them secure the mobile channel for their customers.

Beyond the severe financial and social impact on individual victims of impersonation fraud and cybercrime, businesses whose platforms are targeted are also compromised. Administrative overheads, loss of business and ultimately lasting brand damage are all inevitable consequences of a breach.
