Why team with us

We wrote the book on fraud risk management, literally.

Audient Group’s founder led the development of GAO’s Fraud Risk Management Framework, has testified before Congress on fraud and improper payments, and has helped draft antifraud legislation.  You won’t find a more authoritative source for antifraud solutions.

We listen first.

Audient is the Latin word  for “they will listen.” We listen first and seek to understand your organization and unique situation before offering solutions. We draw on decades of experience which position us to derive insights and craft right-sized, cost-effective solutions to any fraud  concern.

We bake deep and dark web threat intelligence into our solutions.

Data is being sold, traded, and weaponized on a massive scale to gain access to accounts, create fictitious identities, and commit large-scale fraud. We provide actionable, tailored deep and dark web threat intelligence in real time to identify fraud threats to your organization. We use this intelligence in our fraud risk assessments, antifraud strategies and fraud trainings.
