Just writing few lines regarding  leveraging Big Data for fraud detection. Now a day’s Financial industry as well as Banking system are facing most costly challenges in terms of fraud and other financial crimes. Big Data processing framework like Hadoop and its eco systems are started helping to detect, prevent and eliminate internal and external fraud as well as reduce the associated costs.
Analyzing points of sales (POS) in shopping malls. hospitals, retail stores etc and other transactions places, Banking system are capable enough to identify and mitigate fraud immediately.
Effective usage of Big Data processing and analytics, can alert the bank that a credit or debit card has been lost or stolen by picking up on unusual behavior patterns. This then gives the bank time to put a temporary hold on the card while contacting its account owner. This helps Banking system to prevent or stop the further payment transaction carried out by criminals till customers initiate actions from their end.
