  • Publication number: 20230319036
    Abstract: A system can efficiently control access to an interactive computing environment. The system can receive authentication data of an authentication attempt associated with an entity. The system can determine, for the entity, a historical vector including features that include sub-features. The historical vector can be determined by generating synthetic data, generating weights, and determining probabilities. The synthetic data can be based on historical authentication attempts by entities other than the entity. The weights can correspond to sub-features of the historical vector. The probabilities can indicate a likelihood that a corresponding sub-feature is involved in the authentication attempt. The system can compare the historical vector to the authentication data. The system can generate a responsive message based on the comparison for controlling access to the interactive computing environment.

  • Publication number: 20230245139
    Abstract: In some aspects, a computing system is configured to use graph-based techniques to detect synthetic identities. The computing system can generate a collection of graphs based on account data and transaction data for online entities. The collection of graphs includes multiple graph communities, each graph community including nodes and edges. Each node represents a user and an edge between a first node and a second node indicates a user represented by the second node is an authorized user of the user represented by the first node. The computing system can identify a clique graph community in the collection of graphs and compare the identified clique graph community with a known clique graph community that includes synthetic identities. The computing system can determine nodes in the identified clique graph community to be synthetic identities based on determining that the identified clique graph community is equivalent to the known clique graph community.

  • Patent number: 11625730
    Abstract: In some aspects, a computing system can detect synthetic identities based on attributes associated with online entities. The computing system can generate entity links between primary entity objects and a secondary entity object. The secondary entity object identifies a target consumer as a secondary entity for accounts identified by the primary entity objects. Attributes of the secondary entity object and attributes of the primary entity objects can be calculated and compared to determine an inconsistency between a combination of a name attribute value and an address attribute value of the secondary entity object as compared to the primary entity objects. A fraud warning indicating that the target consumer is likely to be a synthetic identity can be generated based on the inconsistency and other attributes of the target consumer, such as an inquiries attribute, a terminations attribute, a duration attribute, and so on.

  • Publication number: 20220103589
    Abstract: Certain aspects involve using a set of machine learning modeling models for predicting attempts to tamper with records using a fraudulent dispute. A tampering prediction system receives a request from a target entity to modify event data for a historical event, including information about the target entity and the event. The system generates a first score by applying a first set of machine learning models to the information from the request and information about the target entity obtained from a database. They system computes a second score by applying a second machine learning model to event data retrieved from the database. The second machine learning model has been trained using labeled training data and is augmented with a model that has been trained using unlabeled training data. The system generates an overall score for the request based on the first score and the second score.
