This disclosure relates to systems and methods of risk detection in an electronic network. The method may include receiving a first portion of session context information for an interaction of an individual over a limited bandwidth network, the first portion including a session identifier for the interaction. The method may include retrieving a second portion of session context information for the interaction over a cloud data pipe using the session identifier, in response to receiving the first portion. The method may include accessing, a data structure representing connected knowledge of the individual. The method may include receiving, via a distributed system, security reputation data including aggregated information from a plurality of members. The method may include analyzing the session context information using the security reputation. The method may include generating a security risk score for the interaction based on the session context information, data structure, and the security reputation data.

Systems and methods of providing security in an electronic network

Devices and methods for securing electronic transactions in a computing network are configured to receive a transaction, access transaction contextual data for the transaction, and apply one or more authentication decision rules to the transaction contextual data to determine initial authentication assessment information for the transaction. Further, aspects are configured to convert the initial authentication assessment information into a condensed authentication assessment indicator having an assessment value selected from a plurality of assessment values based on an assessment value definition, and transmit the condensed authentication assessment indicator. Also, aspects receive a transaction authentication decision based in part on the condensed authentication assessment indicator, and process or deny processing of the transaction based on the transaction authentication decision.

Systems and methods for authenticating an electronic transaction

Risk scores are generated by systems that use features or inputs from the current transactions, some summary statistics like velocity and some statistics calculated in batch mode which traverse hierarchical classification levels of entities, including classified attribute levels of known transactions, to identify neighborhoods of related entities and related transactions. Corresponding records of transaction information are extracted from or are otherwise generated from neighborhoods of the related transactions associated with the defined neighborhoods of entities/transactions. These records of transaction information are then used by a consortium risk engine to generate composite risk scores associated with information from multiple merchants/entities and that were only identified by traversing the hierarchical classification of the entities and/or the corresponding transactions, which are at least tangentially related to the new transaction(s), and which may be the basis for approving or denying the new transaction(s) and/or sending the new transaction(s) for manual review.

Knowledge neighbourhoods for evaluating business events

A device in a data processing system for training machine learning models receives a transaction and forwards it to at least one of a plurality of integrated control action models that use outputs of one model as inputs to other models. The models are machine learning models jointly trained for taking each control action of a plurality of control actions on the transaction to maximize an objective function based on probabilities of the control actions matching corresponding target control actions. The machine learning models include a risk model that outputs risk prediction information for a first control action that indicates whether or not to initiate processing of the transaction. The device further receives the risk prediction information from the risk model, and executes at least the first control action based on the risk prediction information.
