# Introduction to Fraud and Transaction Monitoring

> This page introduces our Fraud and Transaction Monitoring solution — what it does, why you need it, and how it works at a high level. It is the starting point for developers, compliance officers, and product teams looking to understand the solution before moving to implementation or feature guides.

## What is Fraud and Transaction Monitoring?

Protect your business with a comprehensive Fraud and Transaction Monitoring solution that combines fraud prevention at onboarding with continuous monitoring of ongoing activity.

The solution evaluates both non-financial activities (like login and registration) and financial transactions against a default set of dynamic rules to determine fraud and/or money laundering risks. It involves continuously assessing an entity's behavior, device characteristics, and transaction patterns to detect suspicious activity and ensure ongoing protection beyond the initial onboarding process.

### Why you need Fraud and Transaction Monitoring

The solution gives you a competitive advantage by protecting your business, your customers, and your reputation, and its importance extends far beyond simple compliance.

* **Mitigate financial crime**: Uncover and prevent fraudulent transactions and money laundering schemes to protect your organization from financial and reputational harm.
* **Navigate global regulations**: Confidently meet requirements from various financial crime regulations by continuously monitoring suspicious activities, so you can ensure compliance and avoid penalties.
* **Protect customer assets**: Ensure customer accounts and transactions are secure, demonstrating a strong commitment to security and building customer trust with your customers.
* **Improve operational efficiency**: Automate detection and streamline investigation workflows, allowing your team to focus on high-risk cases more effectively.

### How Fraud and Transaction Monitoring works

1. Onboarding fraud checks - You can leverage advanced screening for phone numbers, email addresses, device characteristics, and behavioral biometrics to prevent fraudsters from being onboarded.
2. Continuous activity monitoring - You can continuously evaluate non-financial activities such as logins, password changes and financial transactions such as deposits, withdrawals against dynamic rulesets to detect suspicious behavior.
3. Risk assessment and case resolution - Generate real-time risk scores for entities and activities. In the FrankieOne Portal, you can investigate pending cases, review a complete risk profile for each individual, and resolve them as approved or declined.
