Microsoft AI solution to detect mobile bank fraud in less than 2 secs

The future of mobile banking is clear. People love their mobile devices and banks are making big investments to enhance their apps with digital features and capabilities. As mobile banking grows, so does the one aspect about it that can be wrenching for customers and banks, mobile device fraud.

Problem: To implement near real-time fraud detection

Most mobile fraud occurs through a compromise called a SIM swap attack in which a mobile number is hacked. The phone number is cloned and the criminal receives all the text messages and calls sent to the victim’s mobile device. Then login credentials are obtained through social engineering, phishing, vishing, or an infected downloaded app. With this information, the criminal can impersonate a bank customer, register for mobile access, and immediately start to request fund transfers and withdrawals.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) models have the potential to dramatically improve fraud detection rates and detection times. One approach is described in the Mobile bank fraud solution guide. It’s a behavioral-based AI approach and can be much more responsive to changing fraud patterns than rules-based or other approaches.

The solution: A pipeline that detects fraud in less than two seconds

Latency and response times are critical in a fraud detection solution. The time it takes a bank to react to a fraudulent transaction translates directly to how much financial loss can be prevented. The sooner the detection takes place, the less the financial loss.

To be effective, detection needs to occur in less than two seconds. This means less than two seconds to process an incoming mobile activity, build a behavioral profile, evaluate the transaction for fraud, and determine if an action needs to be taken. The approach described in this solution is based on:

Feature engineering to create customer and account profiles.

Azure Machine Learning to create a fraud classification model.

Azure PaaS services for real-time event processing and end-to-end workflow.

The architecture: Azure Functions, Azure SQL, and Azure Machine Learning

Most steps in the event processing pipeline start with a call to Azure Functions because functions are serverless, easily scaled out, and can be scheduled.

The power of data in this solution comes from mobile messages that are standardized, joined, and aggregated with historical data to create behavior profiles. This is done using the in-memory technologies in Azure SQL.

Training of a fraud classifier is done with Azure Machine Learning Studio (AML Studio) and custom R code to create account level metrics.

Xbox Anti-Fraud Network

Xbox Anti-Fraud.

What is it? You may wonder why? Let me explain it step by step for you.

This software is designed to protect your from hacker and lost console, also lost accounts.

One of the main functions of this Anti-Fraud system is that it will check so your credit card is

not used by a another IP adress. It will in detail show you where your credit card has been used.

If you suspect something unnormal usage of the credit card, you can simply report it in the report tab.

Then one of the people at Xbox Anti-Fraud Team will take a look at it.

As we know the Enforcement Team do have a lot, then I mean a lot of work. This would do so that the

Enforcement team can focus on more important things.

When you have setup your installation wizard, the software will automatically install on your Xbox 360, Xbox One

and also on your Xbox software on your Windows computer.

To be more specific, It's a file that scan for unnormal behavior on your Internet connection.

But what if the hacker is hidden behind a VPN or a secure webbrowser, or directly is connected to my computer with a Trojan Horse?

That is a important question you did ask! Well let me explain that to you also.

The Anti-Fraud software is connected directly to the Anti-Fraud servers at Microsoft. So if it suspect another IP or system it will give a warning.

As this software will be included in Windows Update servers, it will then be a security file that will check if your information is used by another IP adress.

But, the hacker maybe dont have the Anti-Fraud?

That is what I mean that it's in Windows Update, when you have fill in your information in the Anti-Fraud Network website, It will recognize as I typed above, another IP adress.

Because of the security file that is installed with Windows Update. it will locate the IP adress. (The IP adress will only be seen by the Xbox Anti-Fraud Team).

But what if someone is saying bad things to be and it takes 2-4 month before something happens?

Well. With this software it wont take 2-4 month. It will recognize if someone is typing horrible words to you, if you report that player. The system will directly ban that user.

But BE AWARE, If you use it for bad things, your account may be locked. As the Anti-Fraud Team can check if you did it for fun or if it was a real.

Two pictures of the design as it's now:

I'm still working on this, so updates will come.
