Passive authentication continuously verifies users during a session by analyzing behavioral biometrics such as typing rhythm, mouse movements, touchscreen interactions, scrolling patterns, and mobile-device handling, creating a baseline for normal behavior without requiring repeated user actions. Risk scoring combines these behavioral signals with device fingerprints, location, IP-address reputation, access time, and transaction history to calculate a dynamic fraud risk level and trigger proportionate responses such as additional verification, transaction review, or account lockdown. The approach relies on machine learning for feature extraction, real-time anomaly detection, and ongoing adaptation to changing user behavior and fraud tactics. Didit presents a platform using models including RNNs and LSTMs, configurable risk thresholds, alerts, adaptive policies, reporting, and API or SDK integration, and reports client reductions in account takeovers and improvements in conversion rates.
