Few of these founders come from fraud teams directly. For instance, IdentifAI’s founder ran Italian cybersecurity firm Yoroi for nine years, and DeepXL’s CEO was a lawyer at Nordic banks Danske Bank and Handelsbanken. And 6 of the 7 fraud-focused startups have at least one technical founder, bringing engineering experience from fields like self-driving cars and security software. 3.

The next deals are lining up Expect Equifax to be on the hunt. It already runs Incode inside Kount, the fraud platform it acquired, and on its July earnings call it named identity and fraud as one of its four acquisition lanes. On the other side of the table, the likeliest targets are small companies built for fraud and identity teams, and several are due for fresh capital.
