The Challenge

Growing Threats in a Digital Banking World

Global Trust Bank faced multiple challenges that required an innovative approach to fraud detection and prevention.

Sophisticated Fraud Techniques

Criminals were employing increasingly advanced methods including synthetic identity fraud, account takeovers, and real-time payment scams that traditional rule-based systems couldn't detect effectively.

Detection Latency

The existing system had significant delays between suspicious activity and detection, often allowing fraudsters to complete transactions before security measures could be implemented.

Customer Experience Impact

High false positive rates were causing legitimate transactions to be declined, resulting in customer frustration, support calls, and damaged trust in the bank's services.

Regulatory Compliance

Increasing regulatory requirements across different jurisdictions demanded more sophisticated fraud prevention measures with comprehensive audit trails.
