2 5 Introduction 5 Real-time decisions for improved fraud and risk control For several decades, fraudsters have forced financial institutions and the payment industry to engage in an arms race. These institutions and schemes are forced to invest significant sums in new fraud countermeasures, such as EMV chips, two factor authentication, hardware tokens, anti-skimming devices, 3D Secure, etc. Due to the fraudsters creativity and the resources they have available, the life span of such static countermeasures is limited. With, banks, issuers, acquirers, processors, and payment service providers can implement a versatile additional line of defence that gives them a significant advantage in this arms race. prevents fraudulent use of electronic payment systems by applying holistic and highly flexible real-time transaction analysis in multi-channel environments. is a true 24*7 real-time system. It prevents fraud by intercepting fraudulent transactions in-flight, triggering or text message alerts, and generating case reports for subsequent offline investigation. is capable of preventing fraud at individual portfolio level, either during the authorisation process or at the payment gateway. 5 delivers a big step forward in maximising fraud savings, minimising false positives, and reducing TCO.
