Anti-Fraud Technology Benchmarking Report

2026 Anti-Fraud Technology Benchmarking Report

The use of technology by both organizations and the fraudsters who target them has become a defining characteristic of the anti-fraud profession in recent years. Anti-fraud professionals and organizational leaders must take steps to continually evaluate both long-standing and emerging technologies.

To support this endeavor, the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE) and SAS partnered once again to create the fourth edition of the Anti-Fraud Technology Benchmarking Report. For the first time, this edition includes information on how fraudsters are using technology in their schemes. This report also explores how anti-fraud professionals use generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools, automation and cloud computing in their work. 

Our goal for this report is to provide insight into the opportunities and vulnerabilities presented by technologies to support anti-fraud professionals and decision-makers in benchmarking their anti-fraud program's technology and prepare for future developments with fraud resilience at the forefront.
