Moreover, 26 per cent of platform frauds involved collusion between internal actors and external perpetrators."Fraudulent activity on platforms demands the involvement of executives and a cohesive approach that spans the entire enterprise, prioritising the ability to recover from adverse events," the report added.na/ksk/Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
