Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between real-time and batch monitoring?

Real-time monitors transactions as they occur, batch processes at intervals (daily/weekly). Real-time catches issues before fund movement completes.

Does real-time monitoring create more false positives?

Initially it may increase alerts. Tuning rules, implementing machine learning, and refining thresholds reduces false positives over time.

What transactions require real-time monitoring?

High-value transfers, international payments, PEP accounts, and high-risk customer segments benefit most from real-time surveillance.
