Socure Solution Insights: Expanding Coverage and Improving Precision with the Latest Advances in Deceased and Address Data
Blog post from Socure
As identity fraud becomes more sophisticated, Socure argues that effective verification requires high-quality, diverse data sources combined with continuously updated machine-learning technology rather than static, rules-based systems. Its investigations identified increased fraudulent applications tied to correctional facility addresses, improving its ability to flag such high-risk locations by 27%, while its deceased-identity database expanded by more than 140 million records using sources such as funeral homes and authoritative obituaries to reduce delays in public records. Specialized models are used to limit false deceased flags, distinguish legitimate applicants from synthetic identities, and help prevent barriers for groups such as immigrants and young people with limited credit histories. Socure also emphasizes address normalization using USPS standards and supplementary property data, enabling it to match over 15 million residential addresses absent from USPS records and identify ownership changes earlier than legacy providers. These capabilities are presented as particularly important for regulated sectors including gaming, broker-dealers, and transfer agents, where accurate addresses support compliance, customer access, and fraud prevention.
