Risk profiling is the process of assessing the potential risks and vulnerabilities associated with a customer, transaction, or activity. It is an essential component of any compliance program, especially in the financial sector, where regulations such as KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) require businesses to verify the identity and background of their customers.
However, traditional methods of risk profiling are often slow, costly, and prone to errors. They rely on manual verification of documents, such as passports, ID cards, or driving licenses, which can be easily forged or tampered with. They also involve human intervention, which can introduce bias, inconsistency, or fraud. Moreover, they fail to keep up with the changing dynamics of customer behaviour and preferences, especially in the digital era, where customers demand fast, convenient, and secure services.
This is where Accura Scan comes in. Accura Scan is a global leader in digital KYC and identity verification service, offering an innovative solution that leverages automation and technology to perform real-time risk profiling.
Accura Scan’s solution consists of five main features:
ID Scanning solution (MRZ & OCR): Accura Scan can scan any national ID card or passport using a mobile camera and extract the relevant information using optical character recognition (OCR) technology. It can also read the machine-readable zone (MRZ) of the document and validate its authenticity.
Face Biometrics: Accura Scan can match the face of the customer with the photo shown in the ID document using advanced face recognition algorithms. It can also perform 2D and 3D liveness check to ensure that the customer is present and not trying to do a spoofing attack.
ID Forgery Detection: Accura Scan can detect any signs of forgery or alteration in the ID document using its patented ID forgery solution, which runs over 50 forensic checks in real time.
Fingerprint Biometrics: Accura Scan can also verify the fingerprint of the customer using its fingerprint biometrics feature, which works with any fingerprint scanner device.
AML Verification: Accura Scan can also check the customer against various watch lists, such as Interpol, Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and Politically Exposed Persons (PEP), to ensure that they are not involved in any criminal or terrorist activities.
Accura Scan’s solution enables businesses to perform real-time risk profiling with high accuracy and efficiency. It reduces the time and cost of verification, while enhancing the customer experience and satisfaction. It also helps businesses comply with the regulatory requirements and prevent fraud and money laundering.
Accura Scan’s solution is suitable for use in various sectors and applications, such as banking, fintech, travel, hospitality, gaming, e-commerce, and more. It can be integrated into any existing technology platform using its WEB API (web application programming interface) or SDK (software development kit) that works offline as well. Accura Scan offers a 15 days free trial on its SDK and WEB API through its developer dashboard.
