Hawk’s AI boosts instant fraud prevention

Hawk’s AI boosts instant fraud prevention

Hawk has expanded its fraud detection platform with new AI-powered Day One Defense Models, providing instant protection for financial institutions against fraud threats.

The models target authorised push payment fraud, merchant fraud, money mule activity and account takeovers from the first day of deployment. Hawk’s data scientists can tailor and train these models in under three days, helping institutions avoid lengthy AI build timelines while addressing specific fraud threats.

Using automated feature selection and a streamlined model pipeline, Hawk’s approach enables precise and fast fraud detection. It allows financial institutions to block emerging threats quickly while maintaining customer experience.

The new models enhance Hawk’s current fraud prevention suite, which includes real-time prevention with an average 150ms response time and anomaly detection for additional protection.

Hawk chief product officer and co-founder Wolfgang Berner said, “Fraud doesn’t wait — and now, neither do our customers. With our new Fraud Day One Defense Models, financial institutions can now deploy tailored protection in just days. This new offering reflects our commitment at Hawk to helping customers act fast and outpace threats from day one.”
