Cybercrime is a big issue amongst the online applications and platforms today. With the increasing number of customers globally the threat to use the applications for default reasons are also increasing. This is specially a big cause of concern for the finance apps and e-wallets which route for monetary transactions with authenticated processes.

Digital KYC is one of the increasingly informed choices that majority of the fin-tech applications are opting to curb out the cybercrime rates from the fast clutches of the digital hackers. As the use of technology improves and general awareness seeps into the life of the people, it becomes increasingly difficult to deal with the problems. Here are the challenges that digital KYC fights with cyber crime for!

Undue use of logins

Cyber crime is not new to the users of social media or e-wallet 

customers. Sometimes with a flick of a mistake a person comes into a compromising situation where the undue login is made from their account to incur transactions that weren’t chosen to do. These result in a lot of monetary loss bringing in theft and hazards to the accounts. Apart from harming the reputation of the platform these also harm the person’s financial position.

Hackers and their hazards

Hackers have also emerged with technology to gain track of the platforms with their advanced knowledge. The modern hackers find it extremely easy to crack through some of the most secured platforms for personal benefits. And thus it has become important to attain Digital KYC and secure the accounts with advanced protection. This enables cross-checking of the transactions through email or phone confirmations making it difficult for the hackers to channelize a transaction without due authentication.

Unsecured accounts with potential threats

KYC is also about registering with the authorities of your safe residential status and right to use the platform responsibly. Therefore it confirms with the government data. When a customer of dubious residential status or threat to national security is registered and identifies because of the KYC it becomes easier to record their activities and the government gets empowered to track their locations. With the help of the applications the KYC norms establish a secured existence of a person who are in the interest of the nation’s security. Any dubious transactions, unlawful occurrences or doubtful identities can be identified for national protection.

Digital KYC becomes a challenge as well as an aid to bring Cyber Crime to an end. It is the regular attempt to make it stronger that makes the efforts truly worth!
