  • Finding Fraud in Large and Diverse Data Sets
    Business white paper Finding fraud in large and diverse data sets Applying real-time, next-generation analytics to fraud detection and prevention using the HP Vertica Analytics Platform Developments in data mining In the effort to identify and deter fraud, conventional wisdom still applies: Follow the money. That simple adage notwithstanding, the task of tracking fraud and its perpetrators continues to vex both private and public organizations. Clearly, advancements in information technology have made it possible to capture transaction data at the most granular level. For instance, in the retail trade alone, transmissions of up to 500 megabytes daily between individual point-of-sale sites and their data centers are typical.2 Logically, such detail should result in greater transparency and greater capacity to fight fraud. Yet, the sheer volume of data that organizations now maintain, pulled from so many sources and stored across a range of locations has made the same organizations more vulnerable.3 More points of entry amount to more opportunities for fraud. In its annual Global Fraud Report, The Economist found that 50% of all businesses surveyed acknowledged they were vulnerable to fraud; 35% of North American companies specifically cited IT complexity for increasing their exposure to risk. Accordingly, the application of data mining as a security measure A solution for real-time fraud detection has become increasingly germane to modern fraud detection. Historically, data mining as a means of identifying trends from raw Fraud saps hundreds of billions of dollars each year from the statistics can be traced back to the 1700s with the introduction of bottom line of industries such as banking, insurance, retail, Bayes’ theorem.

  • Gartner Magic Quadrant for Data Management Solutions for Analytics
    16/09/2019 Gartner Reprint Licensed for Distribution Magic Quadrant for Data Management Solutions for Analytics Published 21 January 2019 - ID G00353775 - 74 min read By Analysts Adam Ronthal, Roxane Edjlali, Rick Greenwald Disruption slows as cloud and nonrelational technology take their place beside traditional approaches, the leaders extend their lead, and distributed data approaches solidify their place as a best practice for DMSA. We help data and analytics leaders evaluate DMSAs in an increasingly split market. Market Definition/Description Gartner defines a data management solution for analytics (DMSA) as a complete software system that supports and manages data in one or many file management systems, most commonly a database or multiple databases. These management systems include specific optimization strategies designed for supporting analytical processing — including, but not limited to, relational processing, nonrelational processing (such as graph processing), and machine learning or programming languages such as Python or R. Data is not necessarily stored in a relational structure, and can use multiple data models — relational, XML, JavaScript Object Notation (JSON), key-value, graph, geospatial and others. Our definition also states that: ■ A DMSA is a system for storing, accessing, processing and delivering data intended for one or more of the four primary use cases Gartner identifies that support analytics (see Note 1). ■ A DMSA is not a specific class or type of technology; it is a use case. ■ A DMSA may consist of many different technologies in combination. However, any offering or combination of offerings must, at its core, exhibit the capability of providing access to the data under management by open-access tools.
