For decades, identity verification has operated on the flawed assumption that a decision made at onboarding remains valid indefinitely. In reality, a user verified today can become a significant fraud risk tomorrow as new patterns, connections and signals emerge that were simply not visible at the moment of original verification. Some users start with legitimate intentions but are later recruited by fraudsters to become money mules or commit other types of first-party fraud.
At the same time, the rapid proliferation of AI is changing the game. Fraudsters are deploying highly sophisticated AI agents to scale their attacks using deepfakes, synthetic identities and injection techniques (last year, Jumio saw injection attempts increase 700%). As a result, identity verification methods must evolve to prevent unacceptable risk.
Introducing Jumio Watch
Jumio Watch is a first-of-its-kind identity intelligence offering that fundamentally transforms how organizations understand and manage identity risk. When new intelligence indicates that a previously approved verification may now present risk, Jumio customers are proactively alerted to investigate, allowing them to take action after the initial onboarding and verification event, and closing a major gap in traditional identity verification approaches.
The results are impressive: early studies show up to a 25% increase in risk detection after initial onboarding. By continuously analyzing identity signals for meaningful changes in risk long after verification is complete, Jumio Watch moves identity verification from a point-in-time decision to dynamic, ever-evolving intelligence.
Powered by the Identity Graph
Jumio Watch is built on the Jumio Identity Graph. Unlike siloed point solutions, the Identity Graph collects and analyzes patterns and connections from tens of millions of legitimate and fraudulent identities across businesses and industries globally — surfacing risk that no single customer environment could detect alone.
This ongoing, cross-customer intelligence is what sets Jumio Watch apart. Fraud patterns identified in one environment sharpen risk assessments across the entire platform, enabling faster, broader detection for every customer. And because the graph is anchored in verified, legitimate identity data, Jumio Watch goes beyond one-time risk assessment and provides ongoing risk assurance, as it continuously reinforces confidence in the decisions that remain sound.
Built for Fraud, Risk and Compliance Teams
Jumio Watch is designed for the teams on the front lines of identity risk — fraud investigators, compliance analysts, risk leaders, and security teams across financial services, crypto, gaming and marketplace platforms. Capabilities include:
- Post-verification flagging: Verifications that passed at onboarding are continuously reassessed, surfacing fraud that only becomes visible over time.
- Proactive risk alerts: Daily summaries notify fraud and compliance teams of new risk, enabling teams to act quickly before losses occur.
- Investigation-ready portal views: Detailed alert visibility within the Jumio Portal gives investigators the context they need to assess and respond quickly.
- Flexible access controls: User-level permissions ensure the right people have visibility into alerts and investigation workflows.
