9K: Techniques in Data Visualization and Analysis to Identify FraudTuesday, 1:40 - 3:00 p.m.Session Level: Intermediate
2K: Many Faces of Fraud, Waste and Abuse: How Business Analytics Are Helping Organizations Identify, Track and Prevent Fraud Monday, 10:20 - 11:40 a.m.Session Level: Intermediate In a 2008 survey by the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE), 90 percent of ACFE members believe that fraud will continue to grow. Therefore, it is critical for organizations to stay ahead of the perpetrators and better manage fraud and financial crimes investigations. Fraudsters of all kinds continually change tactics, focus on different channels and aspire to new types of attacks that traditional fraud management strategies were just not designed to address. Few organizations have strong, enterprise-wide fraud management programs capable of monitoring customer behavior across all contact channels and linking similar entities together in a network to identify attacks involving more than one individual. Once an alert has been flagged and the risk ranked, systems and processes need to provide the investigation, capture and display of all information pertinent to a case in a fully integrated Enterprise Case Management solution. With this approach, management can implement the best approach to solving their fraud business needs and help reduce losses, decrease false positives and facilitate greater operational and investigator efficiency.
11K: Get Your Career Change and Résumé in SyncWednesday, 8:30 - 9:50 a.m.Session Level: Intermediate
4K: Innovations in Payment Schemes – A New Playground for Fraud? Monday, 1:40 - 3:00 p.m.Session Level: Intermediate Around the globe, payment system providers have expanded beyond traditional financial institutions and service providers to include non-regulated participants. The combination of new payment schemes and participants pose far reaching implications for users, providers, regulators and law enforcement. This session will examine new international payment schemes offered by, in partnership with, or outside of, traditional financial service providers. We’ll discuss real-time Person-to-Person (P2P) transfer solution providers, such as Faster Payments in the UK, M-PESA in Kenya, Tanzania and Afghanistan, and ZOOMPASS in Canada. We’ll evaluate the UK’s experience with Chip and PIN and how the lessons they’ve learned may guide other countries, like Canada, as they roll out those options. The session will also look at Implicit Association Test (IAT) and review conversion and debit card migration to Automated Clearing House (ACH) in the US. These payment schemes may present unexpected risk that must be addressed as criminals seek out the paths of least resistance to commit financial crimes.
