Abstract
There is disclosed a technique for use in providing an assessment of authentication requests. In one embodiment, the technique comprises receiving an authentication request with post-authentication feedback and an authentication request with no post-authentication feedback. In the same embodiment, the post-authentication feedback can include a marking indicating that the request is one of a genuine or fraudulent status after review by an analyst. If a request does not possess a post-authentication feedback then it is considered genuine status. The technique can then assign the status of the requests to a distinctive attribute associated with the requests before performing a computation which produces a computational result that is indicative of the risk associated with the distinctive attribute.
