Aaron Brehove is a fraud risk executive who has spent 20 years helping financial institutions anticipate and govern emerging fraud threats. Most recently he served as SVP and Fraud Risk Officer at Truist, where he led enterprise-wide, second-line fraud risk governance and chaired the Enterprise Fraud Oversight Working Group, bringing emerging risks to senior leadership across business lines.

Synthetic identity has been a throughline of his career. Aaron was among a small group of experts selected by the Federal Reserve to help define the synthetic identity threat, and he translated that work into practical changes in controls, data strategy and frontline practice. More recently he has focused on how generative AI is changing the fraud landscape, from deepfake-enabled identity evasion and document forgery to the responsible use of AI in detection and investigations.

Earlier in his career Aaron worked at Ernst & Young and served in the US Army National Guard. He speaks regularly on fraud and AI at industry forums including BITS, IAFCI, the Federal Securities Institute and the Greater Washington Board of Trade, and has provided expert analysis on national media including the Today Show, CNN and MSNBC.
