About CB Insights - The fraud prevention market map: 200+ companies building fraud & trust infrastructure for the AI era - June 2026
CB Insights' research report 'The fraud prevention market map: 200+ companies building fraud & trust infrastructure for the AI era' (June 2026) maps the ecosystem of companies addressing AI-driven fraud. It identifies over 200 recently funded players across 17 markets and three core categories: fraud detection/prevention, digital identity/verifiable credentials, and trust infrastructure (including on-chain intelligence, decentralized identity, and post-quantum cryptography). The report uses CB Insights' Mosaic score methodology to select high-potential companies and provides key takeaways on investment trends, such as a 3.5x increase in fraud detection funding from 2024 to 2025 and a doubling in digital identity funding. It also notes that AI-generated attacks (synthetic identities, deepfakes, automated bots) are driving demand for real-time detection, identity verification, and AI-powered security infrastructure.
