Liminal Insights Report
Identity Fraud Intelligence:
Trends & Insights
The threat arriving at your door is faster, synthetic, and networked.
Fraud is no longer a predictable line item. The cost of a sophisticated attack has collapsed, synthetic identity is the fastest-growing category worldwide, and the same actor now moves unseen from one institution to the next. Drawing on Unico’s network-scale data and Liminal’s market intelligence, this report maps where the threat is heading and where your market sits on the global fraud curve.

What's inside
Four findings that reset how identity, fraud, and risk teams plan for the next 18 months
01
The collapsing cost of an attack
Why a sophisticated attack now costs over 100x less to run, while the cost of defending in isolation keeps climbing.
02
The sophistication ladder
How attacks climb from basic techniques to advanced operations that combine deepfakes, video injection, and digital manipulation.
03
The connected attacker
How attackers move across institutions unseen, reusing hundreds of identities so each business meets the same fraudster as a first-time customer.
04
Where your defenses sit
A 5-rung maturity ladder to place your own defenses, plus the 18-month outlook on the gaps you can no longer afford to leave open.
The network
The same actor moves across institutions unseen, and isolated defense is becoming a structural liability. The report places your own defenses on a 5-rung maturity ladder.
