Scammers exist in all forms of commerce. With the advancement of e-commerce, fraud has taken on new forms and become more powerful than ever before. Fraudsters take full advantage of any loophole in any system.<\/p>\n
Preventing, detecting, and eliminating fraud is one of the major focus areas of the e-commerce and banking industries at present. Banks and other financial institutions are investing in new ways to meet the challenge of preventing fraud.<\/p>\n
Firms are now embracing Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) technology to detect, investigate, and reduce money laundering and transaction fraud effectively and efficiently.<\/p>\n
AI-based fraud prevention is very effective at reducing chargebacks, fake accounts, spam, account takeovers and so on.<\/p>\n
What is the need for AI\/ML for payment fraud detection?<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong>Fighting against payment fraud by using AI\/ML models is more efficient compared to manual and automated rule-based fraud detection, reason being:<\/p>\n How does AI\/ML detect payment fraud?<\/strong><\/p>\n Fraudulent transactions have specific features that legitimate transactions do not have. Based on this concept, machine learning algorithms detect patterns in financial operations and decide whether a given transaction is legitimate.<\/p>\n The algorithms can be of the following types:<\/p>\n The more data a business can provide for a training set, the better the ML model will be. If there is an unusual pattern in customer spending, the business can notify the customer and ask for further authentication to continue the purchase or decline the transaction if the calculated risk is very high. This process is called \u201cdata scoring\u201d.<\/p>\n Along with the determination of a transaction\u2019s legitimacy, whether a device is legitimate or not can be determined using device intelligence. AI can determine the device profile within a span of milliseconds and help banks stop fraud before it occurs. Information can be collected from devices based on cookies and web beacons as soon as a customer visits a bank\u2019s website. Attribute risks for a device are determined by the AI model, confirming geolocation mismatches and determining device type, OS, and screen resolution mismatches. Maintaining and upgrading AI ML solutions<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n A machine learning model needs to be constantly improved and updated to be effective in credit card fraud detection. Otherwise, fraudsters will come up with new tricks to penetrate the system. Rules-based fraud systems and basic supervised machine learning are no longer enough to keep pace with the evolving sophistication of fraud and cybercrime. The need for intelligent fraud detection using next-generation artificial intelligence has become necessary now.<\/p>\n Companies like Tookitaki, Feedzai, Actimize, BAE Systems NetReveal\u00ae, NoFraud, SignifyD, Iovation, Simility, and the list continues, have financial crime prevention AI\/ML solutions to iron out and control sophisticated cyber-attacks.<\/p>\n Companies that are already using an analytical approach for fraud prevention have reported several important benefits, but there are some organizations that have held themselves back because of the seeming complexity. However, there are solutions emerging that offer stepwise integration, with intermediary steps designed to bridge the gap between traditional systems and next generation technology so that financial institutions don\u2019t have to jump straight into the most complex forms of AI and ML.<\/p>\n Cigniti Technologies\u00a0is set to acquire Aparaa Digital, a leading AI\/ML, data engineering, and analytics services company that operates under the brand name RoundSqr. Cigniti, along with Aparaa, brings consulting-driven expertise, digital engineering, transformation, and assurance covering AI and ML capabilities.<\/p>\n Critical AI operational challenges and ML model validation challenges are solved using Zastra, an active learning-AI based data annotation and MLOps platform.<\/p>\n Need help? Talk to our AI ML experts to learn more about ML landscape and strategy support, model building, data analysis, annotations, and assurance, and how Cigniti can help in the AI ML digital transformation journey.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Scammers exist in all forms of commerce.

\nThe AI solution finds whether a device, which the customer has utilized, has an abnormally high amount of online activity and, along with other factors, uses it in real time to determine fraud patterns and recommend whether a transaction needs to be denied, approved, or reviewed.<\/p>\n\n
