ISW Secure Payments
Advanced Modeler Course

Description: This course builds on the Modeler course stepping through using python to leverage external models; and then making use of modelling tools to create models that are imported into the ISW Secure Payments service. These two approaches help identify patterns of fraud that were not obvious to the fraud team and will increase your hit rate while reducing your false positive rate.

Prerequisites: Completed the ISW Secure Payments modelling course. Some knowledge of Python

Duration: 2 Days
