Myriad Group AG (SIX Swiss Exchange: MYRN), in the wake of recent reports of Mobile Identity fraud costing the European economy millions, is pioneering out-of-band authentication services to validate online transactions and help counter the growing threat of Mobile Identity fraud.

Criminals are exploiting a security vulnerability which exists within global telecom networks that allows the interception of SMS communication between a customer and their bank.
