Today's higher education institutions are facing greater financial risk due to an increase in both internal and external fraud. While some institutions are using traditional security tools to detect certain types of fraud, the vast increase in the types of fraud requires a different approach to build out a comprehensive approach to detect a greater number of threats.

Splunk takes a different approach in that we not only focus on the detection of indicators of compromise but also use data to detect anomalies in usage patterns to increase the accuracy of those alerts.

Attendees joined us to learn more about the topic of fraud in higher education including:

• What types of fraud are on the increase across higher education
• An overview of how Splunk is used across higher education institutions today
• How Splunk can be used to identify and stop fraud in your institution
• A discussion on best practices for detecting fraud in both higher education customers and other fraud-sensitive business verticals like finance organizations
