  • Publication number: 20250356362
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to systems and methods of risk detection in an electronic network. The method may include receiving a first portion of session context information for an interaction of an individual over a limited bandwidth network, the first portion including a session identifier for the interaction. The method may include retrieving a second portion of session context information for the interaction over a cloud data pipe using the session identifier, in response to receiving the first portion. The method may include accessing, a data structure representing connected knowledge of the individual. The method may include receiving, via a distributed system, security reputation data including aggregated information from a plurality of members. The method may include analyzing the session context information using the security reputation. The method may include generating a security risk score for the interaction based on the session context information, data structure, and the security reputation data.

  • Patent number: 11257088
    Abstract: Risk scores are generated by systems that use features or inputs from the current transactions, some summary statistics like velocity and some statistics calculated in batch mode which traverse hierarchical classification levels of entities, including classified attribute levels of known transactions, to identify neighborhoods of related entities and related transactions. Corresponding records of transaction information are extracted from or are otherwise generated from neighborhoods of the related transactions associated with the defined neighborhoods of entities/transactions.
