挑战
Money mules have become a key enabler for a lot of 3rd party fraud and other scams which impact customers and banks across the industry. Cybercriminals, motivated by large financial gain and armed with credentials stolen from numerous data breaches, are becoming adept at taking over genuine online banking accounts. However, once the fraudster infiltrates an account using stolen credentials, or deploys social engineering tactics against a genuine customer, the money must be moved to an account which the fraudster has control over and in which the ill-gotten gains can be laundered. Defined as someone whose bank account is used to launder the proceeds of crime through the financial system, mules are engaged or recruited, either knowingly or unknowingly, for the purposes of laundering money. Hard to track, money is moved rapidly through large networks of seemingly unconnected mule accounts held at multiple financial institutions. This large financial institution was faced with the challenge of how to identify money mule activity within their online banking environment, requiring a solution which would not only detect such activity, but also help stop funds from being moved and ultimately returned to the victims of the crime.
解决方案
Since LexisNexis® Risk Solutions was first implemented, the bank has been able to identify 50% more mule accounts and has returned $965,000 of fraudulent funds to the victims of the money mules. Driving this success is the LexisNexis® Digital Identity Network®, which was able to reveal anomalous behavior indicative of money mules by analyzing attributes such as location, device, and behavior anomalies. Leveraging global digital identity intelligence, the bank was able to clearly see the spiderweb of linked accounts generated by mule activity. It could therefore connect known mule devices with new accounts at login, with email alerts, enabling it to quickly block these new mule accounts. Device and IP intelligence was leveraged to link devices and identify additional mules and networks, with the bank, in one instance, uncovering a fraud ring involving 140 mule accounts. The bank was also able to aid in the arrest of a fraudster recruiting mules, with intelligence from LexisNexis Risk Solutions able to pinpoint the location of the mule account activity. The bank also deployed a mule model that targets unknown mules based on behavior patterns. This allowed it to analyze behavior and patterns at a granular level, and more accurately differentiate between new mules and legitimate behavior change. Allowing for changes in trusted user behavior, the mule model also helped to reduce friction for legitimate customers.

Real-time In-vehicle Monitoring
The telematic solution provides this vital premium-adjusting information. The solution also helps detect and deter vehicle or trailer theft – as soon as a theft occurs, monitoring personnel can alert the appropriate authorities, providing an exact location.“With more and more insurance companies and major fleet operators interested in monitoring driver behaviour on the grounds of road safety, efficient logistics and costs, the market for this type of device and associated e-business services is growing rapidly within Italy and the rest of Europe,” says Franco.“The insurance companies are especially interested in the pay-per-use and pay-as-you-drive applications while other organisations employ the technology for road user charging.”“One million vehicles in Italy currently carry such devices and forecasts indicate that the European market will increase tenfold by 2014.However, for our technology to work effectively, we needed a highly reliable wireless data network to carry the information between the vehicles and monitoring stations.”

Safety First with Folksam
The competitiveness of the car insurance market is driving UBI growth as a means for insurance companies to differentiate their customer propositions as well as improving operational efficiency. An insurance model - usage-based insurance ("UBI") - offers possibilities for insurers to do more efficient market segmentation and accurate risk assessment and pricing. Insurers require an IoT solution for the purpose of data collection and performance analysis

Smooth Transition to Energy Savings
The building was equipped with four end-of-life Trane water cooled chillers, located in the basement. Johnson Controls installed four York water cooled centrifugal chillers with unit mounted variable speed drives and a total installed cooling capacity of 6,8 MW. Each chiller has a capacity of 1,6 MW (variable to 1.9MW depending upon condenser water temperatures). Johnson Controls needed to design the equipment in such way that it would fit the dimensional constraints of the existing plant area and plant access route but also the specific performance requirements of the client. Morgan Stanley required the chiller plant to match the building load profile, turn down to match the low load requirement when needed and provide an improvement in the Energy Efficiency Ratio across the entire operating range. Other requirements were a reduction in the chiller noise level to improve the working environment in the plant room and a wide operating envelope coupled with intelligent controls to allow possible variation in both flow rate and temperature. The latter was needed to leverage increased capacity from a reduced number of machines during the different installation phases and allow future enhancement to a variable primary flow system.

Automated Pallet Labeling Solution for SPR Packaging
SPR Packaging, an American supplier of packaging solutions, was in search of an automated pallet labeling solution that could meet their immediate and future needs. They aimed to equip their lines with automatic printer applicators, but also required a solution that could interface with their accounting software. The challenge was to find a system that could read a 2D code on pallets at the stretch wrapper, track the pallet, and flag any pallets with unread barcodes for inspection. The pallets could be single or double stacked, and the system needed to be able to differentiate between the two. SPR Packaging sought a system integrator with extensive experience in advanced printing and tracking solutions to provide a complete traceability system.

Transforming insurance pricing while improving driver safety
The Internet of Things (IoT) is revolutionizing the car insurance industry on a scale not seen since the introduction of the car itself. For decades, premiums have been calculated using proxy-based risk assessment models and historical data. Today, a growing number of innovative companies such as Quebec-based Industrielle Alliance are moving to usage-based insurance (UBI) models, driven by the advancement of telematics technologies and smart tracking devices.

MasterCard Improves Customer Experience Through Self-Service Data Prep
Derek Madison, Leader of Business Financial Support at MasterCard, oversees the validation of transactions and cash between two systems, whether they’re MasterCard owned or not. He was charged with identifying new ways to increase efficiency and improve MasterCard processes. At the outset, the 13-person team had to manually reconcile system interfaces using reports that resided on the company’s mainframe. Their first order of business each day was to print 20-30 individual, multi-page reports. Using a ruler to keep their place within each report, they would then hand-key the relevant data, line by line, into Excel for validation. “We’re talking about a task that took 40-80 hours each week,” recalls Madison, “As a growing company with rapidly expanding product offerings, we had to find a better way to prepare this data for analysis.”
