RealTech has observed a significant surge in credit card testing attacks on client websites over the past few weeks. These attacks, known as Account Testing Fraud, involve malicious entities testing stolen credit card numbers through online checkout processes, potentially including your website. Both automated bots and human actors are orchestrating these attacks. The consequences can be severe, leading to the closure of your payment gateway and an inability to process payments.
Recommended action:
Our recommended solution is to implement an Advanced Security Captcha Service (Cloudflare) on your website. This service deploys a series of bot-detecting captchas for every site visitor, effectively safeguarding against this type of fraudulent activity. By implementing this solution, you can significantly reduce the risk of such attacks, ensuring the security of your payment processor and gateway. The cost of this service is $50/month.
