The Need for Real-Time Fraud Data - Introducing FraudProbe 2.0"Existing enterprise fraud systems are constrained by the lack of real-time online data. Our customers are looking for a solution that does not require extensive integration with their applications," said Spencer Snedecor, Covelight's CEO. "CTF solves a real-world problem and developed in conjunction with a very large financial institution customer. Our new FraudProbe 2.0 solution already has a successful deployment in what is arguably one of the world's most demanding online environments, and is what has us and other financial institution customers extremely excited." Today's fraud management solutions suffer from a fundamental problem: they currently have no reliable real-time source of data to detect online fraud. Depending on application server logs or modifications to the application code, these systems are simply unable to detect fraud in real-time - without imposing a significant burden on application resources and personnel. Covelight FraudProbe, with its use of CTF Technology, solves this problem by providing application-independent online fraud information to any fraud management or Complex Event Processing (CEP) system - in real time. Covelight FraudProbe is the only online fraud monitoring solution designed to deliver comprehensive, fraud data to any fraud management system without requiring integration with the application - in real time. It is available immediately. The entry level FraudProbe 1000 is a one rack unit fixed configuration system with two monitoring ports and a single management/output port. For more demanding installations, the three rack unit FraudProbe 5000 model includes redundant hardware components, optional SSL acceleration and FIPS-140 compliant key management, and network interface connectivity options. In addition, FraudProbe™ supports multiple high-availability deployment options, including active-standby and N+1.
