Identitetssvindelrapport: The Battle in the Dark

The Battle in the Dark-rapporten 2025, som er utarbeidet av Signicat og cybersikkerhetsekspert Lisa Forte, viser en tydelig avstand mellom virksomheters selvtillit og deres faktiske beredskap mot svindel.

Basert på innsikt fra 900 beslutningstakere innen svindel over hele Europa, avdekker rapporten oversette trusler, tapte inntekter og utdaterte forsvar — og understreker behovet for umiddelbare tiltak for å forhindre identitetssvindel og styrke beskyttelsen.

De fleste virksomheter tror de ligger foran i kampen mot identitetssvindel

I virkeligheten flyr de i blinde:

→ 59 % rapporterer en økning i vellykkede svindelforsøk

→ 1 av 5 transaksjoner og onboarding-prosesser er svindel

→ Kun 45 % måler konsekvensene

→ 22 % av inntektene påvirkes av identitetssvindel og tiltakene mot det

→ 80 % sier at svindlere tilpasser seg når de blir blokkert

→ 74 % mener de vinner — til tross for tallene
