Workforce Fraud Isn't a Future Problem. It's Already Here.
Remote work opened the door to a new category of risk. Today, organizations are discovering that the candidate who aced the interview isn't the employee logging in on day one. That the laptop you shipped is being operated from a country you never approved. That AI-generated personas, deepfake interviews, and coordinated fraud rings are slipping through traditional hiring controls.
