Listen "The battle between tech and fraud"
Episode Synopsis
Is modern tech a convenience or a fraudsters playground? The rapid innovation of tech has presented us with a double-edge sword. On one side, tech promises a stronger defence against fraud through artificial intelligence, data analytics and behavioural biometrics. On the other side, the same advancements are being used against us. Fraudsters are getting smarter and more sophisticated with less, in the last three years alone we’ve seen deepfake scams increase by 2000%. How can you balance the dynamics between cutting-edge technology and ever-evolving tactics of fraudsters? Join Ben Bilsland and Erin Sims, a director in the fraud risk team at RSM UK as they unravel the complexities and explore strategies on how to stay ahead. 🔗 Links More insights from Erin n how to navigate the failure to prevent fraud regulation coming into effect in September 2025: https://bit.ly/4j0iax0Sign up to our media and technology preference center list to get updates on the latest podcast episodes: https://bit.ly/3F4W52w📖 chapters00:00:00 - 00:00:55 : Introduction 00:00:56 - 00:01:36 : How does fraud impact the economy?00:01:37 - 00:04:56: What is tech's role in fraud? 00:04:57 - 00:08:05 : Deepfake technology and fraud 00:08:06 - 00:08:34 : Insurance fraud 00:08:35 - 00:11:06 : Financial services fraud00:11:07 - 00:14:40 : How is tech helping to protect against fraud 00:14:41 - 00:19:12 : How can you protect yourself against fraud?00:19:13 - 00:22:10 : What do businesses need to do to protect themselves? 00:22:11 - 00:23:40 : UK online fraud charter 00:23:41 - 00:26:36 : Fraud regulation 📱 And follow us on social: LinkedIn - https://bit.ly/3Ab7abT Instagram - http://bit.ly/2W60CWm
