Risk & Investigation Intelligence Solutions

Break free from the limitations of isolated processes. With DataWalk, you get a comprehensive and consolidated picture of risk for any entity, streamlining collaboration between risk, compliance, and intelligence teams, helping them to ensure regulatory compliance and mitigate threats.

Fraud

For fraud, DataWalk connects the data the case needs (cybersecurity, customer service, payments, devices, and external registries) into the fraud team's own workflow, so rings, synthetic identities, and shared-device patterns surface where individual controls cannot see them.

Analyze cybersecurity, fraud, and AML activity together on one connected model instead of in separate programs.

What is DataWalk and how do banks use it?
DataWalk is a platform that connects a bank's siloed internal and external data into one enterprise knowledge graph for risk and investigation work. Fraud, AML, KYC, sanctions and intelligence teams use DataWalk to see a consolidated picture of risk for any customer, account or entity. AI agents working alongside those teams use the same connected data. Banks apply DataWalk to fraud, anti-money laundering, KYC and customer due diligence, and threat intelligence.
How does DataWalk connect data from separate banking systems?
DataWalk brings siloed internal and external data into one connected model, then resolves records into real-world objects and the relationships between them. Internal sources include KYC and CDD records, transaction monitoring, alert and SAR history, payments and wires, device and login telemetry, sanctions screening, and anything else. External sources may include corporate registries, sanctions and watchlists, PEP and adverse media, beneficial ownership data, court records and ICIJ offshore leaks databases, and anything else. Resolved objects include people, bank accounts, phones, companies and transactions.
What fraud and money laundering patterns can DataWalk help banks find?
Banks use DataWalk to find fraud rings, mule networks, synthetic identities and complex layering across accounts, devices and counterparties. For fraud, DataWalk surfaces account takeover, shared devices and beneficiaries, reused addresses on loan applications, and insider collusion. For anti-money laundering, DataWalk traces repeated flow-of-funds patterns, rapid movement, circular flows, nested correspondent banking relationships, and payment and shipment mismatches in trade-based schemes.
Can DataWalk trace beneficial ownership and monitor KYC after onboarding?
DataWalk traces beneficial ownership through multi-layer corporate structures and keeps monitoring customers after onboarding through perpetual KYC. DataWalk identifies common directors and shareholders and traces indirect ownership without manual calculation. After onboarding, DataWalk surfaces ownership changes, new counterparties and previously unknown associations. Entity resolution across sources and registries helps KYC teams establish who a customer really is, including PEP relationships.
How long does it take a bank to deploy DataWalk, and where does it run?
In a published case study, a top-25 US bank went live with DataWalk in 19 weeks and brought tens of billions of records into one connected model. DataWalk can run air-gapped, on-premises or in the bank's own cloud. The bank's own team owns the ontology, the rules and every change, so ongoing operation does not depend on the vendor.
