Currently it is estimated that cybercrime costs the global economy approximately $600 billion, with one of the most common forms being credit card fraud which has grown considerably with the increase in the online market. As more and more people chose to transact online it is becoming increasingly important for financial services to invest in better, faster and more accurate fraud detection and prevention techniques.
How our data helps protect us
Thanks to there being such a large amount of online transactions, this means that there is a huge amount of customer data available which can be studied and learnt by AI. They can learn how to identify valid credit card behavioural patterns and how to detect irregular behaviour which could be fraudulent.
