Systems, methods and computer program products for securing electronic transactions
Abstract:
The invention provides systems, methods and computer program products for securing electronic transactions and users of electronic transaction services from phishing attacks by malicious attackers and fraudsters. A terminal device receives a first data communication comprising an OTP associated with a requested electronic transaction, and identifies a validity period associated with the OTP. The terminal device responds to detection of a second data communication between the terminal device and a remote entity during the identified validity period, by extracting content from the second data communication. The extracted content is analyzed and a risk decision is generated based on output of the analysis of the extracted content. The risk decision determines whether the remote entity comprises, or is controlled by, a malicious attacker. Responsive to the risk decision determining that the remote entity comprises, or is controlled by, a malicious attacker, the terminal device may initiate a risk mitigation process.
