The problem: Enterprise fraud is a global epidemic costing companies trillions of dollars annually. A team of ex-Google fraud fighters has come together to create Simility, a company dedicated to helping companies prevent fraud and abuse in real time with machine learning, big data analytics and data visualization capabilities. Simility provides an end-to-end fraud prevention platform that has the ability to take virtually unlimited structured data feeds from across the enterprise and use advanced machine learning and data visualization techniques to detect fraud. With Simility, enterprises can better protect their businesses from fraudsters–all without needing to write a line of code. “Digital disruption in the financial and commerce sectors has resulted in the need for a fraud and risk management solution that goes beyond legacy, static rule-based offerings to offer protection in a digital first, big data analytics-focused environment. Simility is fulfilling that need with an innovative, game-changing, adaptive solution,” said Rahul Pangam, co-founder and CEO, Simility. The company has seen impressive global adoption among enterprise customers in financial services, retail and payments, and has recently secured $17.5M in its latest funding round. https://simility.com https://twitter.com/simility https://www.linkedin.com/company/simility
