Abstract

A fraud monitoring system is disclosed for a communications system. The fraud monitoring system analyzes records of usage activity in the system and applies fraud pattern detection algorithms to detect patterns indicative of fraud. The fraud monitoring system advantageously accommodates transaction both records resulting from control of a packet-switched network and those from a circuit-switched network gateway.
