Fraud-Based Intelligence (FBI) Tools
uComm Transaction Gateway & Management is a transaction processing platform which offers best-in-class security, featuring FBI Tools. FBI Tools allow for a 360º view of security and provide maximum visibility for risk managers – ensuring they are the first, not the last, to know there is a potential threat. This comprehensive approach to risk management continually monitors each of the players’ activities and immediately alerts risk managers when vulnerabilities are identified. The vHub is designed to help answer the following questions:
- What business practices does the MERCHANT engage in that create risk? (ignorance, negligence, etc.)
- What is the PROCESSOR doing to manage risk?
- What is the common CONSUMER doing to add to a merchant’s risk? (unsafe computing, careless card handling, etc.)
- What is the CRIMINAL element doing to defraud merchants?
By monitoring each of the possible threat sources, FBI Tools enable a comprehensive, proactive approach to risk management. The tools provide visibility to and protection by:
- Monitoring MERCHANT business practices in real time
- Monitoring PROCESSOR practices in real time to determine whether or not policies are being enforced
- Incorporating security measures that assume the CONSUMER has made some mistakes
- Proactively defending against cyber crooks / CRIMINALS
