Kounts proprietary technology platform includes    artificial intelligence fraud detection methods that provide    accurate, real-time assessments for card-not-present    transactions, including mobile payments. Artificial    Intelligence, or AI, is a powerful technology that learns    from historical outcomes and then accurately detects fraudulent    activity as it occurs in real time.  <\/p>\n<p>    A cornerstone of Kounts AI technology is supervised machine    learning  a specialized branch of statistical learning theory    that combines historical training data with predictive    functions that process real time threat data. Supervised    machine learning is a powerful component used in conjunction    with tactical methods used to indentify fraudulent behavior as    it is happening.  <\/p>\n<p>    Fraudsters are becoming increasingly sophisticated, which    makes it more and more difficult for merchants to differentiate    good orders from bad ones, said Steve Rouse, COO at Kount.    Kounts AI technologies, combined with other statistically    relevant predictive models, provide our clients with    best-in-class fraud detection. This unique combination of    artificial intelligence and highly accurate predictive models    learns on the go, detects and stops fraud, and allows Kounts    clients to move confidently into new markets.  <\/p>\n<p>    According to Rouse, Some of the huge challenges with using AI    to detect fraud relates to the computational complexity of    doing it in real time. Kount has solved these math problems,    and reduced the overhead required to effectively deploy AI    against evolving threats in real time. Kounts average    response time is approximately 350 milliseconds, which makes it    one of the fastest in the industry.  <\/p>\n<p>    Kounts technology also minimizes the noise that is more    common in neural network and Bayesian technologies used by some    of its competitors. Rouse elaborates, Neural networks and    Bayesian models are susceptible to noise, which is partly    responsible for the high rate of false positives these models    can generate. Kounts AI approach is more accurate because we    deploy active filters to remove that noise and bias. This is a    major reason Kount has much better performance than our    competitors.  <\/p>\n<p>    About Kount  <\/p>\n<p>    Kount helps businesses boost sales by reducing fraud. Our    all-in-one, SaaS platform simplifies fraud detection and helps    online businesses accept more orders. Kounts turnkey fraud    platform is easy-to-implement and easy-to-use.
