BioCatch obtains patent for authenticating mobile device users

It has opened an office in Singapore amidst its expansion plans in Asia Pacific.

Digital identity company BioCatch has received a registered US patent for its method of verifying user identity and detecting fraud based on the manner in which the user holds and uses their mobile device, the company announced.

The method brings the company’s total patent to 57 since its founding in 2011.

BioCatch has also started to expand in Asia Pacific, as it opens an office in Singapore and adds to its operations in India with an increased focus in Asia Pacific as well.

“We continue to enhance our platform and find new ways to protect financial institutions and their customers from fraud and cybercrime. Surpassing 50 patents is a major milestone and a testament to our innovative strength and leadership in the industry,” BioCatch founder Avi Turgeman said.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
