Card Testing Attack Exposing Visibility Gaps
The company faced a serious card-testing (enumeration) attack that revealed critical gaps in its fraud prevention capabilities. Without visibility into performance categorized by payment method, geography, fraud vectors, or industries, they struggled to segment rules effectively and identify attack patterns.
The high fraud count from card testing left them liable for chargebacks and at risk of downstream compliance issues. Their existing solution couldn't provide the granular segmentation and analytics needed to understand where fraud was originating or how to effectively combat evolving attack methodologies across their diverse client base.
Intelligent Rule Segmentation and Unified Risk Platform
FraudNet deployed advanced rule segmentation, ML-powered optimization, and unified transaction and policy monitoring to eliminate card testing vulnerabilities and establish comprehensive fraud prevention.

Unified Transaction and Policy Monitoring
The company added Policy Monitoring to their usage of Transaction Monitoring, centralizing all fraud and risk management on a single platform. This unified data orchestration provided visibility into risk at both the transaction and entity levels, revealing patterns overlooked in fragmented systems.

Continuous Fraud Vector Monitoring
Ongoing updates and refinements adapted to newly discovered attack vectors and fraud methodologies. This proactive approach ensured the company stayed ahead of fraudsters rather than react after losses, addressing emerging threats as they evolved.

ML-Driven Rule Optimization
Machine learning models analyzed transaction data to recommend optimized rules and identify redundant or ineffective configurations. This data-driven approach eliminated noise from the rule set while strengthening detection capabilities against evolving fraud methodologies.

Advanced Rule Segmentation
FraudNet implemented detailed rule segmentation by payment method, geography, fraud vectors, and industries. This granular approach enabled precise targeting of card testing and other attack patterns while minimizing impact on legitimate transactions across different merchant segments.
