We reported on RippleShot and BioCatch yesterday. But there is one more company in the field of finalists for the MRC METAwards to mention: two-time Finovate alum, Risk Ident.

Formerly known as Device Ident, Risk Ident specializes in real-time fraud protection for merchants and their customers. The company’s fraud identification technology includes device-fingerprinting solution, DEVICE IDENT, and an all-in-one intelligent anti-fraud solution, FRIDA, that leverages machine learning to automatically filter and analyze transactions.

Risk Ident shares the “startup” category with allpago International, and fellow Finovate alum RippleShot. These three companies, along with the three in the “established company” category, will make live presentations at the MRC Vegas 2015 event on March 24-26. The winner will be selected by the attendees on Thursday, March 26.

MRC (Merchant Risk Council) METAwards recognize technological innovation in payments and fraud protection. Finalists were chosen by a panel of leading online merchants. Learn more about the Seattle-based organization.

Founded in 2012 by Roberto Valerio and Paul Jozefak, Risk Ident is headquartered in Hamburg, Germany. The company demoed its Fraud Manager technology at FinovateEurope 2014.
