Payment card breaches, check fraud and phishing/vishing - according to this new research, these are the most common forms of fraud striking banking institutions today. Yet, how are institutions typically made aware of these incidents?

More than 75% of the time, banks first detect fraud when they are notified by their own customers.

This is just one of the sobering results from the new Faces of Fraud: Fighting Back study conducted by BankInfoSecurity.com. Join a distinguished panel of fraud experts for an exclusive first look at the eye-opening survey results and how institutions can act upon them, including:

> How to ensure you're prepared to defend against the most common fraud threats;
> How to improve employee and customer awareness, ensuring that fraud prevention is a shared responsibility;
> New technology tools to improve fraud detection and prevention.

Faces of Fraud: Fighting Back is an annual study, giving industry members and analysts insight that they can track and measure over time. Results are analyzed and disseminated through a variety of electronic media, including whitepapers, audio interviews, webinars and at major industry events.
