AN
IT Manager at Airtel Group
Unified fraud and AML protection has reduced losses while configuration still needs to be simpler
SEON Fraud Prevention is not almost 100% accurate, but some areas where it can be improved are on the learning curve. It is a tech-savvy platform and requires the users to be also tech-savvy. When paired or left in the hands of people who do not understand the emerging issues in fraud detection and AI or machine learning, they are not able to run the platform well. This may expose the company to any form of fraud and lead to big losses. Furthermore, this is a platform that suits mid-sized and large enterprises who handle more customers and who have more frequency of fraud occurring. This phenomenon locks out small business users as they do not have that high risk or do not have that high frequency of being targeted by scammers or fraudsters. Those are some of the areas where it can be improved. The initial configuration is an area for improvement. To make it secure and customizable, you have to configure it to suit your organization. Whether you are in the fintech industry, in insurance, or in a money handling business, you have that configuration period and it takes quite some time. This slows down the rate of usage of the platform.

Enables to identify and analyze real-time incidents and mitigate risks
The setup is not complex. It is pretty standard. I rate the ease of setup a nine out of ten. The deployment time depends on the applications and environment into which we integrate it. The product provides a lot of API documentation. The product is cloud-based. One or two people are enough to deploy the solution. We need some maintenance when new versions or patches need to be upgraded. It requires minimal maintenance.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"With SEON Fraud Prevention in place, we have saved money that could have been targeted by scammers by around 50%, which has also grown our profitability by around 30% and proves we have seen a return on our investment."
"Technical support is great; we have weekly meetings with them and they've been, honestly, outstanding."
"After using ThreatMetrix solution, we were able to figure out the compromised devices and doing so helped to find that 1400 devices are compromised, and we were able to not allow payment, a standing order, direct debit, or any other kind of payment, and that ultimately protects us and the user."
"The user interface, the portal, is very helpful in describing what attributes of concern are associated with the device."
"The most valuable thing is about the IP. They have a database of malicious IP addresses against which they check. They have a huge database for routed devices and the devices that have been used in the past to commit fraud. They have extensive historical records of all of that information, and that's probably the most valuable thing about ThreatMetrix. Over the years, they have been collecting and persisting globally across all the banking and financial services. They have been storing all this information. It is this stored information that I and my team find valuable; it is not so much their technology. If you are running it on a simulator and trying to maliciously clone and copy IP addresses and stuff like that, they have a bunch of technologies, like routes section and all the other stuff. It is just that they have something that no one else can deal with, that is, massive amounts of big data about the malicious IP addresses, malicious device fingerprinting, the fingerprinting router devices, and the fingerprints. You can query against this stored information to find out whether your app is in a good, nice environment. If yes, you get a green light. The last time I checked, there were about 400 or 500 features that they can stack against, which is pretty extensive. They give you a score against all those features for every application that you installed on it. It is pretty good in that sense."
"The clients do get a return on their investment; it mitigated a massive DDoS, and it definitely detects fraudulent activities on banking platforms."
"Accessible custom rules with a monthly update on performance."
"The solution is stable."
"There is excellent documentation available."
 

Cons

"SEON Fraud Prevention is not almost 100% accurate, but some areas where it can be improved are on the learning curve."
"I think the solution has some way to go in terms of its user-friendly nature, and in terms of some of the dashboards and metrics that it provides."
"We are only using one feature. We haven't found the other features to be very good or very powerful."
"The pricing could be lower. We are a young company; maybe for big enterprises, price doesn't matter, however, for young companies, price-wise, it's not that good; it's a bit pricey."
"The tool is very expensive."
"SDK is probably where the biggest issue is. The SDK configuration is a bit lacking, and if you are integrating it into your workflow, it is very cumbersome and very difficult to integrate."
"One limitation is it only maintains six months' worth of data. It would be nice if it went back even further to help us really identify and flush out patterns that go on longer."
"SDK is probably where the biggest issue is. The SDK configuration is a bit lacking. If you are integrating it into your workflow, it is very cumbersome and very difficult to integrate. You have to understand and be an expert in low-level mobile applications to integrate this stuff. Integration should be easy based on what they are providing, but unfortunately, it is not. It is very difficult. My work has been trying to simplify the integration process because integrations bring a lot of value. Most companies don't see their value because it is such a difficult process. For integration, you have to get it right as well, but it is very difficult to get it right because they don't help you in tuning your future parameters. Because of this, it is very difficult to tune your future parameters and your risk score. If you are Uber, your risk score will be very different from a banking client that is pushing funds. These two things need to be improved for me. The rest is pretty good."
"Could be more intuitive and user friendly."
