# SHIELD

> SHIELD is a device-first fraud intelligence platform that stops account takeovers, collusion fraud, bot attacks, fake accounts, and abuse across web and mobile apps. On a mission to eliminate unfairness and enable trust for the world, SHIELD helps digital businesses build trust and drive growth by eliminating fake accounts and all fraudulent activities. SHIELD sits upstream of checkpoint tools, exposing fraud rings before fake accounts are created, payments are hit, or KYC is bypassed.

Its core technology, SHIELD Device ID, is a tamper-proof device identifier that persists across sessions, re-installs, factory resets, and incognito mode. It is combined with 20+ configurable real-time fraud signals, behavioral session monitoring, and a Feature AI policy engine that lets businesses stop fraud while keeping friction low for genuine users. SHIELD applies a mixture of AI, ML, LLMs, and deep learning across 15,000 data points per device and 20B+ device signals yearly to keep the Device ID persistent even when the device environment is manipulated. SHIELD is founded and led by Justin Lie (CEO) and it operates globally with teams in the United States, India, Singapore, the United Kingdom, Brazil, Germany, Indonesia, and Thailand.


SHIELD does NOT require personal data (PII) to identify a device. It runs on existing user permissions and stays privacy-secure by design. SHIELD does NOT sell or share customer data with third parties. SHIELD does NOT replace KYC, authentication, or payment systems. It complements them by screening events like signup, login, and transactions upstream of those checkpoints. All data SHIELD generates belongs to the customer, who can log, inspect, or model on it freely.
