    Studies expose gaps in digital commerce

    Separate studies by Axerve and Arkose Labs highlight the need for security and payments orchestration as retailers rush to support multiple checkout options at all points of interaction. New technologies and trends in digital payments in 2022, published May 17, 2022, by Axerve, assesses digital commerce's impact on merchants.

    Alessandro Bocca, CEO of Axerve, stated the white paper underscores a need to align digital methodologies and merchant capabilities.

    "In order for merchants to harness the benefits of diverse payment methods for their customers, it is vital that the new forms of purchasing experiences that are emerging are met with an omnichannel and fluid approach and platforms capable of simplifying multiple payments for merchants," Bocca said. "This is an increasingly complex task meaning that retailers stand to benefit from an expert payment partner."

    Bocca described payments as a "delicate phase [that] determines the transition from purchase intention to actual sale." It's essential for payments to be fast, frictionless, transparent, secure and compliant with PSD2 regulations, all of which requires payment orchestration, he noted.

    Fraudsters profit

    The Q2 2022 State of Fraud & Account Security report, published May 18, 2022, by Arkose Labs, shows a tenfold increase in fraud attacks by fraudsters whose earnings rival those of legitimate C-suite executives, according to Kevin Gosschalk, founder and CEO at Arkose Labs.

    "Evolving bot and human-led attacks increasingly target fintech, gaming, and technology companies," Gosschalk said. "Simple automation is a thing of the past as attackers have proven to be quick learners and continue to find ways to sabotage businesses to increase their personal wealth."

    Catching evolving attacks early requires deep insight into fraudsters' tactics and financial motivations, Gosschalk noted, adding that Arkose Labs analyzes billions of sessions each quarter to uncover the latest attack patterns. New findings indicate fraudsters are using new tools and resources to reduce barriers to entry, he stated.

    Hot fraud trends

    The Arkose Labs report highlighted the following popular and emerging schemes:

    "One thing is certain: the ROI for cyberattacks is greater than ever in 2022," Arkose Labs researchers wrote. "The digitalization of our lives and work means fraudsters can attack companies and threaten consumer trust long before a transaction takes place."

    Hot digital trends

    The Axerve white paper cited additional research to reflect the following digital trends:

    "The technological response from the world of payments to the new forms of purchasing experiences with an omnichannel and fluid approach, are the platforms capable of satisfying increasingly complex and [personalized] needs, both from the point of view of the merchant and from that of the customers," Axerve researchers wrote.
