OneSpan Enhances Banking Security with Phishing-Resistant Solution

New innovation expands on the company’s FIDO authentication portfolio with transaction signing

OneSpan Inc. announced a breakthrough innovation in phishing-resistant transaction security, VISION FX. This new solution combines OneSpan’s patented CRONTO transaction signing with FIDO2 protocols that strengthen protection against phishing and account takeover threats (ATO), setting a standard for banking security. Merging both technologies into a single authentication solution delivers the most secure and user-friendly option on the market for banking customers logging on to execute transactions.

“With VISION FX we are bringing a future-proof approach to digital banking authentication that sets the new standard in online transaction security while also creating a seamless user experience.”

Changes in the banking sector associated with new digital initiatives have ushered in unprecedented cybersecurity risks. Digital fraud losses from attacks such as ATO are anticipated to surpass $343 billion globally between 2023 and 2027.¹ In the current threat environment, banks of all sizes need more sophisticated methods to protect accounts and transactions from evolving social engineering attacks, unauthorized access, and account takeover attempts.
