• Tools, Vendors & Reporting. Manage fraud, identity, and device‑intelligence tooling and vendors; evaluate and onboard new signals and platforms.
• Metrics & continuous improvement. Define and report fraud loss rate, false‑positive / decline rate, detection rate, review SLA, and recovery; drive continuous improvement against targets.
