Banking Fraud Detection Methods in Vanuatu: A Challenge to Stay Ahead of Cybercriminals
In a bid to reduce the risks of fraud and maintain their reputation, banks and financial institutions (FIs) in Vanuatu are constantly evaluating new methods to detect and prevent fraudulent activities. With the rise of digital banking and increased cyber attacks, FIs must adapt to stay ahead of fraudsters.
The Challenge: Balancing Fraud Detection with a Seamless Customer Experience
The challenge for banks is to balance fraud detection with a seamless customer experience. As more consumers turn to digital banking, they expect to be able to onboard and access financial services quickly and easily on any connected device. However, this also means that FIs are facing an increase in sophisticated cyber attacks, making it essential to implement robust risk management strategies.
Multi-Layered Approach to Combat Fraud
To combat fraud, FIs in Vanuatu are adopting a multi-layered approach, combining fraud detection and prevention tools to identify and stop attempts by fraudsters to access accounts. This includes the use of identity affirmation and risk-based authentication (RBA) technologies, which harness four layers of intelligence to monitor user and environment activities.
The Four Layers of Intelligence
These four layers include:
- Device Intelligence: Providing information about the device used to access the account
- Behavioural Biometrics: Analyzing the user’s behavior patterns, such as typing speed and mouse movements
- Behavioural Analytics: Monitoring the user’s online interactions and identifying unusual behavior
- Trust Consortium: Verifying the user’s identity through a trusted third-party service
Benefits of Multi-Layered Approach
The benefits of this approach are clear:
- Enhanced onboarding with risk management
- Reduced total cost of ownership by avoiding additional checks and abandoning high-risk enrolments at an early stage
- Real-time monitoring of authentication and transaction process risk

Staying Ahead of Cybercriminals

By combining innovative technologies and strategies, FIs can provide a secure and seamless customer experience while protecting their assets and reputation.
