"What we are seeing now is that how credentials are being stolen or being harvested at scale. Organizations need to have a view of how the login attempts are happening on the banking side," says Khandelwal. "Is login attempt happening with actual customers common to the site, or are they coming in from any kind of automation effort. And that is really distinguishing between some of the better risk postures and risk management practices as compared to some of the traditional practices," says Khandelwal.

In a video interview previewing an upcoming virtual executive roundtable, Khandelwal also discusses:

  • Recent banking fraud trends in Bangladesh;
  • How banks can leverage ML to counter threats from fraudsters;
  • How enterprises can spot red flags indicating sophisticated attacks.

Khandelwal works at the intersection of banking and technology. At F5, he looks after business growth for ASEAN and the South Asia region. He previously held roles in cybersecurity, digital banking transformation, fraud prevention and risk management.
