The company, which specializes in fraud prevention and Business Intelligence, aims to eliminate the burning problem of fraud that costs travel industry hundreds of millions of dollars annually.
Nethone provides truly effective prevention mechanisms against fraud of various kinds, including payment fraud, loyalty fraud, identity theft, geospoofing and more.
It also brings a comprehensive suite of data mining tools one can use to obtain unique business insights and apply accurate, frictionless Know Your Customer (KYC) processes.
Nethone solutions leverage diverse technologies, including advanced Machine Learning powered by rich data collected from a multitude of sources, User Profiling and unique expertise of the team. The system enables among others:
- in-depth Behaviour Analytics,
