Andrew Macintosh: Executive Director at Control Risks at Cypher 2017
summary
A description of concrete outcomes: analytics pipeline uses Excel → SQL → Tableau plus text and social network analysis to find vendor and payroll fraud, not just theory. Casework uncovers 3 million USD defrauded over 20 years via fake vendors tied to one employee, ghost employees and shared bank accounts, and organized insurance fraud exposed by clustering phone numbers and maps. Statistical checks such as Benford's law and rule‑based red flags narrow hundreds of thousands of transactions to a few investigatory leads.
