An improved data handling system is disclosed that facilitates the collection, storage and distribution of information for use by one or more recipient performing a process such as assessing the risk associated with a transaction. A system for handling information includes an administrator for facilitating communication with a subscriber and an information acquisition engine that is for facilitating communication with one or more provider of information and an information assimilator that is for facilitating communication with a database. The system is configured to facilitate receiving a request from the subscriber defining one or more set of information and one or more provider of information to be received by the information acquisition engine and combined by the information assimilator into an information suite to be stored in a database.

System and method for assessing risk

In accordance with the present invention, an improved data handling system facilitates the collection, storage and distribution of information for use by one or more recipient performing a process such as assessing the risk associated with a transaction. A system for handling information includes an administrator for facilitating communication with a subscriber and an information acquisition engine that is for facilitating communication with one or more provider of information and an information assimilator that is for facilitating communication with a database. The system is configured to facilitate receiving a request from the subscriber defining one or more set of information and one or more provider of information to be received by the information acquisition engine and combined by the information assimilator into an information suite to be stored in a database.

System and method for acquisition, assimilation and storage of information

A method of testing a process that has undergone modification. The process consists of multiple steps, and execution of the process involves interaction with multiple interfacing systems. A step consists of, e.g., sending a transmission to an interfacing system. The process is executed in normal fashion by sending transmissions to interfacing systems and obtaining responses to the transmissions from the interfacing systems. The transmissions and the responses thereto obtained from the interfacing systems are stored in a simulator. After the process is modified by modifying a step of the process, the modified process is executed in such a manner that transmissions are sent to the simulator rather than to the interfacing systems. The simulator sends responses to the transmissions. It is determined whether the responses received from the simulator are the expected responses, based on the modification made to the process.
