Fraudology is presented by Sardine.
In this episode of Fraudology, cybercrime expert & head of the Evidenced Based CyberSecurity Research Group at Georgia State University, David Maimon shares insights on collecting data from the darknet, identifying emerging trends systematically, and how the cybercrime industry has changed in the last 5 years.
As he describes the various components within the world of cybercrime and online fraud, David starts making the comparison of this world to a deep underwater ecosystem. Throughout the conversation, he continues painting the picture of the factors that feed the continuous changes within the ecosystem, including how the ecosystem responds & adapts to antifraud measures in the industry. (This brilliant analogy might just replace Karisse's "infamous" "Zombie metaphor"!)
David also talks about the importance of understanding the entire ecosystem of cybercrime in order to implement the right methods to identify & compete with the "parasites"; and he sheds light on some of the misconceptions surrounding fraud prevention. David & Karisse end this conversation by addressing the misconception that any fraud or identity solution will make a difference in the eco-system, or even on the "organism" you are charged with protecting. The truth is, in some cases, cybercriminals have their favorite fraud & identity detection solutions....and that's not good news for the fraud-fighting industry.
