ThreatMetrix to Present Real World Applications of Big Data Analytics at ISMG’s Fraud Summits
San Jose, CA (PRWEB) September 11, 2014 -- ThreatMetrix®, the fastest-growing provider of context-based security and advanced fraud prevention solutions, today announced it will present at the Information Security Media Group (ISMG) annual Fraud Summits in Toronto, London and New York on Sept. 17, Sept. 23 and Oct. 21, respectively.
Andreas Baumhof, chief technology officer at ThreatMetrix, will speak on a panel at the Toronto summit entitled “Real World Applications of Big Data Analytics - Social Network Analysis and Post Breach Fraud Detection.” The panel will focus on how big data is being used to detect and prevent fraud, specifically focusing on two use cases that are currently providing significant real-world value: social network analysis and post breach fraud detection. Additionally, Alisdair Faulkner, chief products officer at ThreatMetrix, will present at the London and New York summits.
“At ThreatMetrix, we know a collective approach to cybersecurity through the use of big data is far more effective than leaving every entity to fend for themselves,” said Bert Rankin, chief marketing officer at ThreatMetrix. “We’re thrilled to lend our expertise to ISMG for another round of their groundbreaking fraud summits.”
