T-Mobile USA Upgrades its Anti-Fraud Systems
T-Mobile USA has contracted T-Systems North America and Neural Technologies to provide a new fraud management solution tool. Neural Technologies, a provider of risk management solutions, has cooperated with T-Systems to implement their Minotaur risk management tool. T-Mobile will use the fraud management solution to automate many manual processes with automatic detection methods to react even quicker to potential fraud events.
T-Mobile says that it will be able to better identify and stop fraud either before it happens, or as soon after an anomaly or change is detected.
"We chose Minotaur because it is a single technology platform for multiple risk management applications and is configurable to meet our needs," said Robert Strickland, senior vice president and chief information officer for T-Mobile, USA. "Minotaur has the flexibility to add new data feeds, rules, neural models and profiles as our business needs change."
T-Systems will serve as Prime Contractor and Integrator for hardware and software integration and services for the rollout of the fraud management system. Additionally, T-Systems and Neural Technologies will work together to address the evolving risk management needs of T-Mobile.
T-Systems is a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom - which also owns T-Mobile USA.
