Multi-point risk detection for electronic transmissions

The technology described herein relates to systems, methods, and computer storage media, among other things, for determining whether an electronic transmission (e.g., associated with an electronic payment transaction) should be blocked (e.g., based on being a fraudulent transaction). In embodiments, a policy-based reinforcement learning risk decision agent is used to make these determinations for a plurality of stages associated with the electronic payment transaction (e.g., a pre-authorization stage, a post-authorization stage, and a delay-captured stage). The policy-based reinforcement learning risk decision agent can be trained using previous electronic payment transaction data for previous electronic payment transactions. For example, this particular agent can be trained using pre-authorization electronic payment transaction data, post-authorization electronic payment transaction data, and delay-captured electronic payment transaction data for each of the previous electronic payment transactions.

System and method for optimization of fraud detection model

There is provided a computing system for optimizing a plurality of fraud detection strategies used to generate a corresponding set of potentially fraudulent transactions. The system determines an overall fraud value such as an average fraud value for each transaction based on pre-defined factors and identifies a particular strategy having a highest average fraud value for its fraudulent transactions as a highest priority on a ranked list of strategies. The system is configured to remove each transaction from the remaining other strategies if the same as the fraudulent transactions in the identified strategy and calculate an average fraud value for the remaining other strategies. The system then ranks the next highest priority fraud detection strategy having the highest average fraud value while removing its corresponding transactions flagged from other remaining strategies and repeat the ranking until all the strategies have been ranked and apply the ranked list to subsequent transactions.

Chain transactions for fraud prevention

In point-to-point payment, fraudulent transactions are detected without an intermediary. An audit trace associated with the transaction chain is generated for transferring the digital currency from the initial sending wallet to the final receiving wallet and associating the audit trace with the token of the digital currency. Before being received by the final receiving wallet, each token maintains an audit trace of an intermediate digital wallet in which the token is transacted. A request is received to identify whether a first transaction in a transaction chain is a fraudulent transaction. In response to the request, a first audit trace associated with a first token associated with the first transaction is retrieved. The first transaction is determined as a fraudulent transaction when a wallet clone or value tampering is detected in a first token associated with the first transaction by analyzing the first audit trace.
