MPIN reset is one of the most vulnerable account flows. Fraudsters may exploit it to take control of accounts.
Challenge Objective
Design a risk-based authentication system that secures MPIN reset requests.
Problem Scope
Focus specifically on risk evaluation during MPIN reset flow.
Key Issues
- No behavior-based risk scoring during MPIN reset.
- Authentication risk factors are not evaluated dynamically.
Guiding Questions
- What signals indicate suspicious MPIN reset attempts?
- How should authentication requirements adapt to risk levels?
- How can fraud be prevented without disrupting legitimate users?
What Teams Should Design and Build
A system that:
- evaluates risk during MPIN reset
- applies additional verification when necessary
Solutions May Include
- secure MPIN reset procedure
- device trust scoring
