You’re either a lover or a hater of AI, worried it’s going to take your job or take over the world. And whilst it’s not quite at the level of world domination, it’s probably doing as much bad as it is good.
As of late 2025, AI-driven fraud accounted for almost 42.5% of detected fraud attempts in the financial sector. These sophisticated attacks often use deepfakes and synthetic identities to bypass security, resulting in a 29% success rate (significant).
Fraud attempts using deepfake technology have increased by 2,137% over the last three years, and 38% of total revenue lost to fraud is estimated to be due to AI-driven attacks (significant).
There are a lot more statistics that we could list that would show you just how bad the issue is. And perhaps the even bigger issue is the fact that 51% of all internet traffic comes from automated (bot) traffic.
At the forefront of managing the issue are sophisticated AI fraud prevention platforms giving full visibility into LLMs, AI agents, and automated traffic. Below, we’ll give you a list of the top AI fraud platforms and why they’re the best.
DataDome
DataDome, founded in 2015 with headquarters in New York, is the market leader for cyberfraud protection. Interestingly, at the end of 2025, they released their 2025 Global Bot Security Report that included an in-depth analysis of over 16,900 websites spanning 22 industries. As per their report, AI bot and crawler traffic quadrupled, now accounting for 1 in 10 verified bot requests.
Without a doubt, AI is now the dominant issue shaping online traffic, and DataDome AI fraud protection and detection is one of the best at stopping it. For example, it’s now common knowledge that fraudsters can use AI to bypass CAPTCHAs, but DataDome can stop that in under two milliseconds, with a 0.01% false positive rate.
And for OpenAI crawlers, DataDome detects 1 billion requests daily, so you get full visibility into who’s crawling your site.
You don’t need to have your traffic clogged with AI agents and traffic if you use DataDome to block unauthorized AI traffic that clearly drains resources. Instead, you can profit from AI agents through strategic partnerships supporting LLM licensing and AI agent payments.
With DataDome, you also get:
- A multi-layered ML algorithm at the edge of the network to analyze 5 trillion signals daily.
- Integrations with CDNs and apps to mitigate bots with near-zero latency.
- 24/7 security operations center (SOC) and threat research team for continuous monitoring.
- An incredibly low false-positive rate
Arkose Labs
Arkose Labs was one of the fastest-growing private companies on the 2025 Inc. 5000 List. Founded in 2015 in Brisbane and now based in San Francisco, they’re a leading global account security company specializing in bot management and account security through an adaptive challenge–response system.
Arkose Labs uses a slightly unique system. They dynamically present interactive puzzles, or challenges, as they call them, to suspicious traffic, powered by risk-based analysis that evolves in real time. It’s a “step-up” challenge mechanism that tightly integrates into login, registration, and transaction flows to stop credential stuffing and fake account creation. It can even stop ATOs and phishing attacks.
Arkose also provides extensive analytics dashboards for attack pattern insight and offers 24/7 SOC support that works as an extension of the client’s team.
HUMAN Security
HUMAN Security, formerly White Ops, is a more holistic fraud defense platform that protects against bots, account abuse, and advertising fraud across web and mobile channels. Founded in 2012, New York-based White Ops uses behavioral analysis with ML to determine human vs. automated activity.
They use a lightweight client-side sensor to collect hundreds of indicators, with a cloud ML detector continuously learning the normal range of human interactions for each context. Any deviations from what the system considers normal trigger the HUMAN Defense Platform, leading it to block, rate-limit, or challenge suspicious traffic in real time according to custom policies.
Probably its biggest strength is its immense threat intelligence network, capable of verifying 20 trillion digital interactions per week, giving it unparalleled insight into emerging threats. HUMAN Security also offers modern defense techniques such as tarpit delays and invisible challenges to deceive and block bots.
The selling point, however, is that HUMAN is pioneering trust management for AI agents. They’ve developed a new Agentic Trust initiative that uses cryptographic signatures to identify legitimate AI-driven traffic vs. malicious bots.
LexisNexis ThreatMetrix
LexisNexis ThreatMetrix, part of the LexisNexis Risk Solutions portfolio, is a fraud and digital identity intelligence platform that is a popular option.
At its core is the LexisNexis Digital Identity Network® with the capability of analyzing billions of transactions and logins across thousands of global sites to assess risk in real time. ThreatMetrix creates a unique digital identity profile for each user by correlating:
- Device fingerprints
- Locations
- Behavioral biometrics
- Previous history
- Threat intelligence
Advanced machine learning models then evaluate each interaction, such as login, payment, new account, etc, and assign a fraud risk score instantly to accept, reject, or challenge the event.
LexisNexis offers integrated solutions like Emailage® (email risk scoring) and IDVerse® for document verification and biometric checks, with IDVerse® achieving 99.98% facial biometric accuracy.
Those are our top four AI fraud detection and prevention platforms on the market. The technology they’re using is becoming so advanced, but so is the AI fraud technology on the other side. It’s pushing the boundaries of cybersecurity, and these are the companies consistently pushing back.
