  • Mitek upgrades its unassisted video verification to address rising AI-powered identity fraud threats in Spain.
  • Enhancements include deepfake detection, digital manipulation analysis, screen-replay protection, and injection attack defenses.
  • 89% of Spanish companies reported increased fraud attempts last year, with identity fraud as the top cause of corporate losses (AEECF data).
  • Unassisted video verification remains a key regulatory requirement for financial and regulated entities in Spain.
  • The solution protects against advanced attacks like face morphs, synthetic identities, and deepfake impersonation without adding user friction.
  • Mitek focuses on adaptive, intelligence-driven verification to balance security, compliance, and fast onboarding experiences.

Evolving Threat Landscape in Spain

The threat environment in Spain has shifted dramatically, moving from traditional document-based fraud to sophisticated AI-enabled tactics. These include screen replays, digital alterations, synthetic identities, and deepfakes that enable realistic impersonation during onboarding processes.

National statistics highlight the urgency: 89% of Spanish companies faced more fraud attempts recently, and identity fraud continues to drive the majority of corporate fraud losses according to AEECF reports. Onboarding stages are particularly vulnerable, as fraudsters exploit weaknesses before accounts are fully secured.

Key Statement from Mitek

“The threat landscape has fundamentally changed, and verification systems must evolve at the same speed,” said Marc Sabadí, Innovation Lead & Sales Manager at Mitek Systems. “We’re enhancing unassisted video verification for one reason: to give institutions stronger protection while keeping onboarding compliant for our customers and the experience fast and seamless for legitimate customers.”

Advanced Features in the Enhanced Solution

Mitek's improved verification incorporates advanced features such as deepfake detection for AI-generated facial manipulations and face morphs, analysis of digital manipulations and screen replays, protection against injection attacks, and face gallery analysis to identify repeated or coordinated fraud efforts.

Commitment to Adaptive Verification

These developments demonstrate Mitek's commitment to adaptive, intelligence-driven solutions. As AI-driven fraud grows faster, more scalable, and automated, Mitek delivers tools that safeguard security and compliance while preserving high conversion rates and seamless user experiences for regulated organizations in Spain.
