FraudLink^® Kite is a historical, behavior-based application requiring a minimum amount of user involvement while providing the maximum amount of benefit in terms of risk coverage. The system is self-learning from both historical and daily transactions.  Each suspect downloaded to FraudLink Kite is evaluated to determine a kiting pattern.  Up to 60 days of transaction history is analyzed for uncollected funds and uncollected funds usage. The system prioritizes suspects based on calculated behavior values, presenting them in graphical format with the highest level of risk for review first.

FraudLink Kite is primarily designed for installation and operation of financial institutions of all sizes.
