System, Method, and Computer Program Product for Breach Detection Using Convolutional Neural Networks

Abstract:

Described are a system, method, and computer program product for breach detection using convolutional neural networks. The method includes receiving transaction data associated with a plurality of transactions completed in a first time period. The method also includes identifying a set of suspected fraudulent transactions of the plurality of transactions based on inputting at least one parameter of the transaction data into a fraud evaluation model. The method further includes generating an image comprising a field of points, wherein each point is associated with at least one transaction of the set of suspected fraudulent transactions, and wherein an x-axis position in the image of each point in the field of points is associated with a time subperiod of the first time period in which the at least one transaction occurred. The method further includes detecting a breach event by processing the image with a convolutional neural network (CNN) model.
