Versatility in rule variables allows for customization and optimization.
All 3DS systems assess the risks of all transactions, including closed cards. This drives additional workload for operations. Having said that, CA’s partnership with several authorization providers, such as TSYS, will help us to eradicate this issue. These 3DS secure systems act independently from a bank’s man authorisation system ( Falcon, TSYS, SAS Raptor etc), and as a result they end up in position where they end up attempting to authenticate transactions that are closed card as they have no visibility of these type of statuses. This essentially means that these fraud system generate alerts on closed card , wasting operational resource. This is the same for all systems in this space inc RSA. Having said that there have been recent developments in this space that have allowed authorisation platform to work together with the 3DS system via an API. Meaning that the 3DS system can pass the data to the Authorisation system who in turn will make the decision, instead of the decision being made via a 3DS platform. One example of this is the TSYS/CA relationship.

A good designer for the UI, stable, and scalable
I give the solution a ten out of ten. Unlike other technologies, Nice Actimize Fraud & Authentication Management is partially pre-built, making it easy to understand what needs to be done and how to complete the work. Furthermore, due to the pre-existing code, there is no need to start from scratch, providing a better understanding of the current situation and what needs to be implemented. Our organization moved to Nice Actimize Fraud & Authentication Management because the solution is an upgraded version and also it provides many benefits as we can easily activate rules. Nice Actimize Fraud & Authentication Management is very convenient and it provides easy access to everything. When utilizing the solution for the first time, always start with a lower environment such as a development environment. Only use Dell and SIT, and do not go directly to production. The solution may have an impact on the bank and large transactions.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"In terms of the fraud that we see on the card site, card not present fraud, the person gives contribution to what the total fraud has increased substantially."
"I think for us, the value that we get out of CA is their effective scheme diagnostics."
"For us, it enables the bank or the issuer to offer their customers protection on their online transactions."
"The service works as described, the Admin console is very good along with customer service, and"
"I use this product to extract cases from there and then send it to Ops to review and analyze."
"It's a very good product for compliance and transaction monitoring for anti-money laundering."
"They have a very expansive transaction monitoring fleet. They have a lot of models and rules to choose from. Its flexibility or ability to customize a model is very impressive as compared to other platforms."
"I like the score generated on the Actimize platform for each customer transaction. Those are transactions per second, accommodating millions of transactions per second. That's the best feature of Actimize."
"Nice's most valuable feature would be its rule engine."
"I like the tracking methodology. Though it was implemented on-premises, the compliance is compatible with it. It will have certain modifications with RPM and APR. It has good exposure from a compliance point of view."
"The solution loads big data efficiently and quickly."
"The process and technology in the solution are very fast, and it is bug-free."
"The most valuable feature is the designer, which allows us to connect to UI and build things directly, such as creating a platform with our synchronizing policy manager rules, without any additional requirements."
 

Cons

"Probably having more flexibility and working on usability and how we use the solution."
"I had wish it would be this one, this authentication for fingerprint and face would be promising."
"This solution can improve around the challenge rates and the failures."
"I think improvements for us, it's making it simple enough that anybody can understand how it works."
"The service is improving with the implementation of 3D Secure 2.0."
"Processes don't function when front end is down."
"From the front end side, the UI is definitely user-friendly. It is highly compatible as long as the reading is at the coding point of view. But it can't provide certain high coding. When a person clicks on any kind of scenario or alert, I would like to have a metadata help menu."
"The solution needs to mitigate and provide an update for one listener process that keeps failing."
"I would like for it to proactively give suggestions or hints before initiating the transaction. It could make use of the data that has already occurred, like machine learning. It should learn patterns from specific countries."
"I would say — Actimize is not being moved forward by Nice."
"It would be better if it integrated with other tools. Actimize uses many databases, and everything on Actimize has been deployed to the database. On the customer side, on the front end side, if they focus more on integrating with other applications, it can make the tool better. The reporting feature and dashboards could be better. In the next release, I would like them to incorporate a Tableau-type reporting structure within this tool."
"Could include additional customization"
"It is complex in terms of daily maintenance. Other detection platforms run on a 15-day or one-month window, whereas this particular platform runs daily. Therefore, it requires daily maintenance. If there is a delay due to this daily maintenance, it creates a snowball effect impacting the subsequent days. It takes a lot of effort to catch up and get into BAU mode. It would be great if they could include certain features to make the daily processing less complex, but I don't see that happening. It is a complex product, and with each version release, it is just becoming more and more complex."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Utilize the transaction pricing model versus the active cards because the ability to monitor active cards hasn’t been good."
"I don't like the length of our vendor contracts because it kills our flexibility."
"Nice Actimize Fraud & Authentication Management is an expensive product."
"We need a separate license for each of the packages, such as the core package, self-development package, and customization package."
"I don't know how licensing is handled in the current organization. I know that Actimize provides an option for yearly licensing because that's what we had in my previous job."
"It is reasonable for enterprise customers."
