First Derivative is a collaborative partner of Queen’s University’s Centre for Secure Information Technologies (CSIT). An insurance industry case study highlights the work being delivered by that institution in partnership with private sector: Studies estimate that fraud costs the insurance industry $25 billion per year and that 10 per cent of all insurance losses are believed to be fraudulent. When applying these estimates to a client’s business, there is a potential $800 million in savings to be made by reducing fraud. Given the magnitude of the figures, even a small reduction in fraud can have a big impact on the company’s financial results.
The aim of the Partnership was to develop an integrated anomaly detection system to identify fraudulent claims and point of sale fraud. The partnership focused on developing a structural similarity-based matching system to identify fraudulent individuals who re-enter the system with a new identity. The client uses graph databases for insurance data management and data analytics. These graph databases provide input data to the matching system.
