The Intersection of Identity & Fraud
5:30pm – 8:00pm CT | Houston, TX
Event Overview
In today’s threat landscape, identity-based crimes such as account takeovers, synthetic-identity fraud and new-account fraud are increasingly acting as the gateway to larger financial and reputational breaches. Forward-thinking organizations must identify malicious actors early, embed stronger identity controls and adopt a holistic counter-fraud strategy.
This executive roundtable will explore how enterprises are shifting left on fraud prevention—moving proactive identity detection, behavioral analytics and adaptive authentication earlier in the customer lifecycle. We’ll examine how to balance frictionless customer experiences with robust controls, how data and behavioral insights drive real-time fraud detection, and how leading organizations build comprehensive, adaptive counter-fraud frameworks.
Participants will engage in a structured, peer-driven discussion with industry experts and executives sharing their experiences, practices and future plans for identity resilience and fraud mitigation. The goal: to uncover actionable approaches that strengthen trust, reduce risk and enable secure growth in a rapidly evolving digital environment.
