iovation's Reputation Manager 360's Product Maturity, Size of Installations and Technological Innovation Highlighted in CEB TowerGroup Analysis


PORTLAND, OR--(Marketwire - Jan 22, 2013) - iovation, the leading provider of device reputation protection against online fraud and abuse, today announced the inclusion of its ReputationManager 360 solution in the CEB TowerGroup "Enterprise Fraud Management" report. ReputationManager 360 received high marks in the report for its unique device reputation capabilities for fighting fraud, customizable business rules and information sharing across a broad range of industries, as well as iovation's exclusive Fraud Force Community.

"Credit decisions have long been based on the financial reputation of applicants, but the ability to understand the history of the tools that are used to access and establish accounts augments the ability to assess fraud risk at the same time," said CEB TowerGroup research director Jason Malo. "Products including iovation enable financial service providers to improve their risk assessment capabilities at account opening, where they may not have a relationship or history with the applicant or credit request origination point."

"We are excited about iovation's inclusion in this report and honored to be evaluated alongside other leading fraud fighting companies, some of which are iovation partners," said Jon Karl, iovation's Vice President of Corporate Development. "Inclusion validates the benefits of ReputationManager 360 and of advanced device intelligence as a means for financial institutions and other entities to analyze risk in real time."
