Wallife, a start-up that operates in the Insurtech sector to protect against the risks deriving from the improper use of new digital technologies, has launched
the Wallife App
, which protects people's digital identity, mitigating the risk of personal data being stolen from smartphones .
Digital identity theft
is
increasingly frequent: according to the results of a recent Ipsos research commissioned by Wallife, over a third of Italians claim to have been the victim of a digital crime.
Violations of social accounts, card cloning and unauthorized dissemination of personal images and videos are among the most widespread crimes involving digital identity.
With a proprietary technology that exploits machine learning algorithms, the new Wallife App is able to detect more than 60 threats related to potential risks for the security of the device, the network and the apps installed, thus guaranteeing a high level of protection of the digital identity of individuals and risk mitigation.
Furthermore, thanks to an
anti-phishing detection system
, the Wallife App allows you to verify the reliability of links, SMS, and documents that could hide possible phishing attempts, an increasingly sophisticated and complex technique to identify, thus preventing important risks which can lead to fraud and economic and reputational damage.
“More and more people, of all age groups, are exposed every day to a series of risks concerning the use of new technologies and digital devices.
If we want to fully enjoy the advantages they offer us, we must also be prepared to face, and above all prevent, new types of threats.
The new Wallife App, available free for 90 days for all users and purchasable together with the insurance coverage at the end of the trial period, represents an important protection tool for our digital identity.
We will continue to work to guarantee our users ever more complete protection tools by integrating new features to protect users from emerging risks and equip them with useful tools to actively counter them", said Maria Enrica Angelone,
CEO of Wallife.
Furthermore, through the Wallife App, users can manage their policy independently and access protection tools.
Launched in September 2022, Wallife Biometrics ID is the policy that ensures digital identity by protecting access to one's bank accounts, online payment methods and social media.
