Risk Detection

RiskDetector

The Risk Detector flags various types of possibly fake and dummy data in person records.

Detection Methods

How it works

The methods used to classify input data are divided into positive validation and negative checks.

Positive Validation

Person's Name

Parse tree validation, term and culture confidence consideration.

Physical Address

Parse validation, existence confirmation, geocoding. Verifies street address within postal code and place name.

Telephone Number

Correct parsing for location, area code existence verification.

Email Address

Syntax validation, domain existence, MX records verification, domain classification into risk scores.

Negative Checks

AI Neural Network

Trained on classified good and bad data.

Dictionary Lookups

Manually categorized terms for known patterns.

Rule-Based Computing

Detection for random typing and nonsense input.

Types of Invalid Input

Common Patterns
  • • Random typing: "asdf asdf"
  • • Placeholders: "John Doe", "Anytown"
  • • Famous entities: "James Bond", "Barack Obama"
  • • Test data: "firstname lastname", "test1 test2"
Disguised Input
  • • Padding: "XXXJohnXXX"
  • • Stutter typing: "Petttttttterson"
  • • Spaced typing: "P e t e r M i l l e r"
API Interface

Input/Output

Input

Uses common Ontology as input objects to REST API. Flexible data feeding:

  • • Person's name (full name or separated fields)
  • • Telephone numbers
  • • Email addresses
  • • Physical addresses

Output

Returns comprehensive risk assessment:

  • Overall risk score: Range -1 to +1
  • Score > 0: Risk detected
  • Score = 0: Neutral (nothing detected)
  • Score < 0: Genuine record
  • • Detailed information about each detected risk
