Loss Prevention Meaning

The proactive strategies and technologies used by businesses to minimize "shrinkage," fraud, and theft. In the digital economy, this focus shifts from physical shoplifting to preventing "Account Takeover" (ATO), "Credit Card Fraud," and "Exploits" in code.

A loss prevention team uses data analytics to identify suspicious patterns, such as a user suddenly logging in from a different country and trying to withdraw their entire balance. They might implement "Step-up Authentication" (asking for a facial scan) for these high-risk actions to ensure the real owner is in control.

For decentralized protocols, loss prevention involves "Bug Bounties" and "Security Audits." By paying "White Hat" hackers to find vulnerabilities before the "Black Hats" do, the protocol can prevent millions of dollars in potential losses.

It is a "cost of doing business" that is essential for maintaining user trust.
