Device Fingerprinting Technology, also known as Device Authentication, Device Identification, and Device ID, is entering the mainstream. Device Fingerprinting has proven to be a valuable and worthwhile tool for online fraud prevention.
A device fingerprint is a piece of information collected about a remote computing device for the purpose of identification. It is essential to know if a device connecting to your site has previously been flagged for fraud in your network. And it is even more important to know if a device visiting your site for the first time has been flagged for fraud by other businesses outside your network.
