According to the annual Federal Reserve Financial Services Survey, in the United States, forms of check fraud including forgery and counterfeiting account for 31% of all bank fraud. In fact, in 2023 check fraud losses surpassed $20 billion, and are expected to be even higher in 2024. With the evolution of technology, fraudsters have been able to leverage increasingly sophisticated methods like AI to create counterfeit checks, alter legitimate checks, and forge signatures. This rapid escalation in check fraud underscores the urgent need for more robust, real-time verification technologies, and Mitek's Check Fraud Defender represents a significant advancement in check fraud detection.

Using a unique combination of patented imaging science, machine learning, and artificial intelligence to analyze checks from all channels in real-time, one customer reported a reduction in losses of $16M after using CFD for a few months. “As transaction fraud tactics become more sophisticated, effective mitigation is essential to safeguard our clients' operations," said Ashish Bhatia, VP Product Management, Alogent. "By integrating Mitek’s Check Fraud Defender with our Unify platform, we provide our bank and credit union partners with advanced AI-driven tools for risk mitigation across all deposit channels, while maintaining a seamless user experience for account holders. This partnership highlights Alogent’s commitment to innovation and our dedication to upholding the highest standards of security and trust in the banking industry.”

The Alogent and Mitek partnership is one of many anticipated by Mitek as more financial institutions seek assistance in mitigating the scourge of check fraud and ballooning financial losses. “We are thrilled to extend our partnership with Alogent to include detecting check fraud, which has reached unprecedented levels,” commented Kerry Cantley, Vice President Digital Banking at Mitek. “With this partnership, Alogent’s customers will now be able to leverage Mitek's powerful fraud consortium, to quickly detect and prevent fraudulent activities across any channel online, in branch, or ATM.”
