Mastercard has launched an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered cybersecurity solution dubbed ‘Cyber Secure’ to help banks combat cybercrime.
The new suite of tools is designed to allow banks to assess cyber risks and prevent breaches across their digital ecosystem.
They can identify and neutralise potential threats across their cyber environment as well as help merchant partners prevent millions of dollars of fraud, the payments giant said.
The company claims that it’s Cyber Secure solution can quantify and prioritise cyber risks and empowers banks to monitor and track their cyber position.
Cyber Secure helps protect the consumer data, mitigates financial losses, and provides the visibility of cyber risks via one application.
It performs risk assessments using the capabilities of risk management platform called RiskRecon, which was acquired by Mastercard this year.
