Abstract:
Methods and systems for a device identification system may be provided. The device identification system may determine an identity of a user device associated with a transaction. The identity may be determined by network address information, hard link information, soft link information, and/or other such information. The network address information may include IPv4 information, IPv6 information, a device ID, and/or other such information. The identity of the user device may be determined and a transaction conducted from the user device may be assigned a fraudulent transaction risk score according to the information. Transactions that are determined to be at a high risk of fraud may be reviewed or otherwise flagged and/or canceled.
