AUNGATE EXTENDS PRODUCT SUITE WITH 'IJEN MODULE' TO POWER FRAUD ANALYSIS & MONEY LAUNDERING DETECTION
SAN FRANCISCO, CA - April 5th, 2005 - Autonomy Corporation plc (LSE:AU or AUTN:L) today announced that its Aungate division, which has set the de-facto standard for electronic communications management technology powering operations in the world's leading regulators and stock exchanges such as the US SEC and NYSE as well as premier banks and litigation companies, has further extended its Aungate product suite with the addition of the 'Ijen Module' to power fraud analysis and money laundering detection.
Ijen technology was developed by NCorp, a company founded in February 2000 to commercialize technology developed by leading UK Cambridge University researchers in the structured data field. In 2004 NCorp joined the Autonomy group of companies and its powerful Ijen pattern recognition technology - which enables computers to rapidly identify complex patterns in structured data - was integrated into Autonomy's unique Intelligent Data Operating Layer (IDOL), the world's No1 technology for automating unstructured information operations. Ijen dynamically builds an intelligent and sophisticated understanding of the underlying meanings, trends and patterns in structured data sets and provides information to aid decision-making and automate intelligent data classification procedures.
Ijen's successful integration into the Autonomy IDOL platform on which Aungate is founded has already yielded a number of powerful benefits that have now been leveraged into the Aungate product suite. These include a powerful set of real-time analysis operations for banking database systems to automatically and intelligently identify subtle pattern changes in user behavior otherwise hidden and contained within the vast collection of transactional data. Until now, alternative approaches to these tasks have relied on manual legacy technologies, which are difficult to scale and are unable to detect subtle changes in transactional data or perform predicative analytics.
Ian Black, Managing Director of Aungate said "This first application of Aungate's Ijen Module' into the field of fraud analysis and money laundering detection further extends Aungate's unparalleled spectrum of automated real time operations which already includes sampling, detection, discovery, alerting and routing of text, voice and rich media content. No other technology offers such an impressive range of options and the addition of Ijen further strengthens Aungate's leading position in the market."
