UmbrellaFraud fraud detection and prevention saves millions

In partnership with IBM, Zoreza global’s UmbrellaFraud is reducing the time it takes to score or analyze a transaction. This gives banks the chance to check virtually 100% of their transactions and minimize time/cash wastage.

Off-mainframe inferencing takes far too long

 

AI is being implemented to address various use cases, such as credit scoring, fraud and anti-money laundering (AML). However, while most banking and payment transactions are executed on mainframe platforms, AI detection is often off-platform. According to Celent less than 10% of transactions go through an Al inferencing model in real-time due to latency and cost issues.

In addition, traditional fraud models have a high rate of false positives causing poor customer experience. It is estimated that worldwide revenue losses from fraudulent credit card transactions amount to around $298 billion a year.

UmbrellaFraud goals

Scoring 100% of incoming transactions while meeting existing SLAs

Leveraging existing fraud models or implementing custom models

Reducing scoring latency by deploying fraud prevention natively on z/OS alongside the authorization systems

Leveraging the MLz COBOL scoring service to:

  • Greatly simplify scoring call-out 
  • Reduce overhead to invoke the scoring service 

 

Why use UmbrellaFraud for AI-driven fraud detection?

 

Over the past 35 years, UmbrellaFraud application architecture has evolved into a reliable technical platform that delivers a fast integrated development environment (IDE) for z/OS 

UmbrellaFraud is used by more than 40 top-tier global financial institutions, each operating about 100 applications, which translates to thousands across mainframe development. Thanks to its inherent accessibility for new applications, Umbrella stands out as the optimal environment for integrating scoring AI solutions. 

Every day, recognized global financial institutions trust their business processing on the UmbrellaFraud System. Their financial applications serve more than 750 million customers holding 900 million accounts, and execute over 1.6 billion transactions. 

 

 

Detect fraudulent transactions in real time with UmbrellaFraud

 

Hogan/UmbrellaFraud/IBM partnership sets the pace

 

UmbrellaFraud leverages IBM z16’s dedicated AI Telum chip as an AI accelerator to allow for fast and straightforward deployment of machine learning (ML) models from Hogan or other Z-based applications, reducing latency and facilitating 100% inferencing coverage. Combining ML with Hogan's transaction-processing capabilities offers banks twice the advantage. The Hogan system’s proven transactional integrity and scalability provides a solid foundation for ML models analyzing patterns in real-time.
