The Impact of Communications Infrastructure on Fraud Detection and Deterrence
Sandy Kronenberg · 2012
E-commerce allows the transaction of business at incredible speeds. Unfortunately, this same technology allows businesses to be defrauded at that same rate. This chapter delivers an organized understanding of currently available security technologies. These security technologies provide protection to the communication flowing throughout the organization. Although many of these security technologies were not developed with fraud detection and deterrence in mind, if properly deployed, these solutions can provide instant or near-instant reporting of possible fraud attempts. In addition, the chapter describes information technology (IT) staff, executives, and auditors with information about the security technologies available and known behaviours that can be detected by these technologies.
