The at least one processor is programmed to receive transaction data associated with a plurality of processed transactions and receive rules data comprising at least one indicator of suspect activity. The at least one processor is also programmed to determine a first portion of the rules data to associate with a first portion of the transaction data and determine whether the first portion of the transaction data complies with the first portion of the rules data.
