Looking for a Bureau.id Alternative?
Good Signals.
No Proof Behind Them.
Bureau documents strong device and behavioural intelligence. NonaShield includes that, plus RASP, hardware-backed cryptographic attestation, and immutable evidence — so the risk score comes with proof, not just a probability.
A Risk Score Isn't Evidence.
Bureau's own site documents device identification, device graphs linking accounts and devices, behavioural authentication across 160+ attributes, and contextual risk decisioning. RASP appears in their product navigation but isn't detailed publicly. What isn't publicly documented: agentic AI investigation, hardware-backed cryptography, or immutable evidence logs — so when a regulator or a customer disputes a transaction, the risk score alone isn't the same as a signed, tamper-proof record.

Should You Actually Switch?
You need RASP, hardware-backed cryptographic attestation, and tamper-proof evidence in the same platform as your device and behavioural signals — not as separate projects.
You need device and behavioural fraud signals for onboarding or account monitoring, and you're willing to run app-layer RASP and hardware attestation as separate projects.
Questions to ask when comparing NonaShield and Bureau.id
A fair comparison starts with the job you need done. Use these questions with any vendor, including us.
- Does it protect the app at runtime, or only before release?
- Is the device identified by a hardware-backed key, or by a stored ID?
- Who makes the fraud decision, and can you see why it was made?
- Is there signed evidence you can hand to a regulator or use in a dispute?
- What does it cost with every feature you need switched on?
- Can you pilot it beside your current tool and compare results?
Cost and effort
NonaShield is a flat $599 a month (about ₹6 lakh a year) and includes RASP, device fingerprinting, identity and evidence. When you compare with Bureau.id, add up every product you would need to cover the same ground, plus the integration and operations time for each. See the RASP pricing page.
Moving over
- Run NonaShield beside Bureau.id on a small share of traffic.
- Compare detections, false positives and time to integrate.
- Move the flows where fraud decisioning matters most first.
- Retire overlapping tools once the results are clear.

One SDK, With the Evidence Built In.
NonaShield is a single SDK integration — device fingerprinting and behavioural risk come with RASP and signed evidence already attached, not bolted on separately. Talk to us about your current setup and we'll walk through what moves over.
