5 Risk Management

Oracle Adaptive Access Manager supports companies by protecting their exposed Web applications, services, and end-users from online threats and insider fraud. Oracle Adaptive Access Manager features include:

Oracle Adaptive Access Manager provides real-time or offline risk analysis by calculating the risk of an access request, an event or a transaction and determining proper outcomes to prevent fraud and misuse.

Oracle Adaptive Access Manager also provides interdiction methods including risk-based authentication, blocking, and configurable actions to interdict in other systems.
