Digital Media Forensics

Photo-based loss estimates help insurers streamline claims and enhance the customer experience. But without fraud checks in place, the leakage can outweigh the benefits.

Demo Digital Media Forensics

The hidden risk in virtual claim estimating

Many investigators rely on visual inspection to detect fraud, using a memory-based repository of images to identify potential duplicates or fraudulent activities. They require a method to efficiently screen the millions of unstructured data files in their claim system for signs of fraud.

Leverage technology for fast claim processing

Digital Media Forensics automates the analysis of unstructured data by applying a series of algorithms to every customer-submitted loss photo to expose anomalies.

Quickly search hundreds of millions of images

This solution identifies images that have been used in other claims, finds duplicates in Verisk’s cross-carrier database of more than 150 million images, and searches the internet for matching images.

No need to contact other carriers for prior loss images

Digital Media Forensics provides free prior-loss images for claims handling and automatically verifies when image data matches claim information.
