Latest Patents
One of Gebhardt's latest patents focuses on methods and apparatus for reducing data capture and storage requirements for call and transaction-related message monitoring and fraud detection. This patent describes systems for monitoring, storage, and analysis of information in signaling messages communicated from originating networks to a destination network through one or more intermediate networks. The correlation and comparison between signaling messages of interest sent from an origination network to those received by the destination network allow for the detection of inconsistent information. This includes identifying information fields in a communicated message that have been altered, either intentionally or unintentionally, by an intermediate carrier. The introduction of an additional communications path for forwarding notification messages from signaling monitoring equipment in the origination network to that in the destination network significantly reduces memory storage requirements and processing time. This enhancement enables the monitoring system to operate in near-real time, allowing for fraud detection while a call is still in progress.
