NetGuardians Launches Innovative SaaS Offering for Financial Fraud Prevention on Google Cloud

Yverdon-les-Bains, 7 November 2023: Today, NetGuardians unveils a new Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering delivering its renowned AI-driven fraud prevention solutions on Google Cloud. This strategic step highlights NetGuardians’ dedication to providing advanced fraud prevention technology that remains accessible, effective, and responsive to the changing requirements of the financial sector.

The Challenge: An Era of Fraud Epidemic

In an era marked by an alarming surge in financial fraud, the imperative to safeguard financial institutions and their customers has never been more critical. According to the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) report, up to five percent of corporate revenue is currently lost to fraud every year. That’s estimated at US$4.7 trillion globally. Amid these challenges, the adoption of advanced fraud prevention solutions has emerged as a pivotal strategy.

However, the transition to such solutions has often posed some well-known obstacles. The need for new and most of the time dedicated IT resources, both in terms of personnel and infrastructure, as well as new skills have deterred many institutions from embracing these solutions. Uncertainties surrounding the total cost of ownership, time to value, and performance have also added to the hesitancy in adopting such cutting-edge technology.

The Solution: The NetGuardians SaaS Offering

NetGuardians’ payment fraud prevention solution is now available as a seamless and comprehensive SaaS offering on Google Cloud.

The key advantages of NetGuardians’ cloud-based approach include:

• Seamless Application Management: NetGuardians takes charge of application management, alleviating the need for institutions to invest in additional IT overhead.

• Enhanced Security: Both NetGuardians and Google Cloud adhere to certified processes and employ cutting-edge tools to guarantee the security of sensitive data.
