Fraud Sciences

Founded in 2001 by Saar Wilf and Shvat Shaked, Fraud Sciences was a pioneering company in the field of online fraud prevention. It developed a unique, technology-driven approach that went beyond traditional rule-based systems, using machine learning and behavioral analysis to screen online transactions in real-time and identify fraudulent activity with high accuracy. In January 2008, the company was acquired by PayPal for $169 million to integrate its sophisticated risk management technology into PayPal's global payment platform.
