Amazon Web Services (AWS<\/a>) has announced the general availability of Fraud Detector, a\u00a0machine learning<\/a>-powered service that\u00a0helps organisations to tackle\u00a0fraudulent activity.<\/p>\n

First launched at\u00a0Amazon Re:invent<\/a>\u00a0last December,\u00a0Fraud Detector\u00a0uses the same technology that Amazon employs to fight fraudulent activity on its e-commerce marketplace.\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\nThe tool\u00a0requires no machine learning expertise, according to AWS, with Fraud Detector providing a selection of ready-made fraud detection\u00a0AI<\/a>\u00a0templates that cover different use cases. To train their model, organisations simply upload historical data covering both fraudulent and legitimate transactions to\u00a0AWS S3<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Businesses\u00a0with more advanced requirements can use their own models with the service using an integration with\u00a0SageMaker<\/a>, Amazon\u2019s managed AI platform.\u00a0<\/p>\n

AWS charges no up-front payments, long-term commitments, or infrastructure to manage with Amazon Fraud Detector, and customers pay only for their actual usage of the service.<\/p>\n

Swami Sivasubramanian, Vice President, Machine Learning, said: \u201cCustomers of all sizes and across all industries have told us they spend a lot of time and effort trying to decrease the amount of fraud occurring on their websites and applications.<\/p>\n

“By leveraging 20 years of experience detecting fraud coupled with powerful machine learning technology, we\u2019re excited to bring customers Amazon Fraud Detector so they can automatically detect potential fraud, save time and money, and improve customer experiences – with no machine learning experience required.\u201d<\/p>\n

Amazon Fraud Detector, which counts GoDaddyy and Truevo among is early adopters,\u00a0is available in the US, Ireland, Sinapore and Sydney,\u00a0with availability in additional regions in the coming months.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The launch of Fraud Detector comes after\u00a0Amazon made\u00a0CodeGuru\u00a0generally available<\/a>. This is an AI-powered code review service that uses\u00a0programme analysis and machine learning to detect potential defects that are tricky to find and recommend fixes in Java code.\u00a0 <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
