Actimize now also owns the rights to one of the industry's fastest growing card data consortiums, with billions of ATM / Debit transactions collected from thousands of institutions worldwide. The consortium data will be used to enhance Actimize's existing fraud detection models and allow them to gain unique capabilities such as identification of compromised merchants, terminals and cards as well as early worldwide ATM fraud trends. These capabilities are especially useful in detecting and managing the risk behind "mass compromises".
By combining Actimize's existing enterprise fraud platform, used by some of the largest banks in the world, with the additional insights gained from the predictive consortium models, Actimize will now be able to provide unparalleled ATM and Debit fraud protection to its customers as part of a true cross-channel, cross-silo, enterprise solution. Additionally, these models will leverage the Actimize Risk Case Manager, and will work in tandem with other Actimize software capabilities, including the Actimize investigation tools, integration adapters and real-time execution engine.
"Our clients told us that they were unable to find consortium-backed, proven ATM/Debit analytics on a strategic enterprise case management platform with strong real-time capabilities," says David Sosna, CEO of Actimize. "We are responding to the needs of the market with the strategic acquisition of consortium fraud detection models. The analysis we will glean from this capability will enable us to offer our clients mission-critical fraud solutions, building on Actimize's already strong enterprise approach."
According to 2007 TowerGroup and American Bankers Association market data, debit card usage and fraud have experienced double-digit growth rates over the last four years. In addition, financial institutions are faced with increasingly sophisticated attacks involving POS replacements, PIN encryption and other mass compromise events, cross-border attacks and even employee collusion. With this announcement, Actimize is the only solution in the market that offers consortium-based analytics that can fight these new fraud threats as part of a proven cross-channel enterprise fraud solution.
The consortium data-based analytical models will be rolled out to Actimize ATM/Debit Fraud customers as part of Actimize's next major product release and are expected to be available on the existing Actimize platform in the first months of 2009.
