Overview
Operators across the world are moving towards delivering diverse, high-margin services in the next generation environment. Exposure to complex types of next generation fraud will increase dramatically for network operators depending on their business model. Fraud risks will be greater for operators having a high-value service offering.
Not only must operators be shielded against the newly emerging frauds that accompany these services, but the approach to fraud management must evolve to guard against today's fraudsters: smarter and shrewder with intentions and means to cause considerable damage to network operators.
Nikira™ Fraud Management System
Nikira Fraud Management System is the next generation fraud management solution built to deliver on a 3-step philosophy of Detect-Investigate-Protect. Nikira detects known fraud types and patterns of unusual behaviour, helps investigate these unusual patterns for potential fraud, and uses the knowledge, thus generated, to upgrade and protect against future intrusions.
Nikira is characterized by its unique architecture that harnesses the power of proven rules-based alarms and pattern matching driven by advanced statistical techniques. Adding power to this hybrid detection system is a set of potent case management tools. These tools provide relevant case data that are made easily accessible through a single window in a fast web-based GUI.
Nikira’s high flexibility allows operators of different sizes to customize rules to suit unique network and business requirements. A configurable workflow management tool integrates the investigation process with detection.
Nikira has the ability to detect fraud types in all telecom environments: Wireline (PSTN, ISP, VoIP), and Wireless (2G, 2.5G, 3G); and across all services: postpaid, prepaid, VAS, MMS and M-commerce.
