Nebraska DMV fraud prevention tech curbing suspect online license renewals
That's why the threat matrix tool, when it flags suspicious activity, doesn't turn customers away outright. Instead, it gives would-be patrons a direct contact point at the DMV tasked with verifying their identity. That's out of 174,322 applications for online renewals and other online licensure transactions. The DMV is paying Tyler Nebraska up to $130,000 to run the application, which Lahm said she hopes provides enhanced security without making it "for people who are legitimately trying to do business online." "And everything that we can do to help facilitate and protect and keep their information secure is something that we want to do."
