Risk Engine & Anomaly Detection (Without Surveillance)

Traditional fraud prevention = “track everything, store everything, model everything”.

Omnera’s risk engine is built around a different idea:

See enough to detect abuse. See as little as possible about normal users.

Concretely:

  • We focus on patterns, not personas – spikes in velocity, repeated declines, weird usage combinations, clearly automated behavior at an aggregate level.

  • We rely on ephemeral, minimized signals – many signals used for risk decisions do not need to become permanent, user-level logs.

  • We prefer limits + friction over deep profiling – when behavior looks risky, adding friction (throttling, temporary caps, extra checks) is often enough, without needing to fully deanonymize someone.

When we say “no trail”, it means:

  • no behavioral monetization,

  • no long-lived profile graphs,

  • no exploitation of user data as a secondary business model.

It does not mean “no risk controls at all”.
