Data Analyzer

Data Analyzer, a business component provided in the Pega Common Application, maintains a network of key data and analyzes relationships among entities related to Alerts and Investigations, such as Transactions, Accounts, and Subjects. This topic presents an in-depth look at the main elements of the Data Analyzer.

The Data Link Analysis module

The Data Analyzer module is used in the Pega Alert and Investigation (AIM) application to deliver the following essential features that enable effective and efficient investigation work:

Merging Alerts into existing Investigations

As work on an Investigation Case progresses, the process of monitoring Transactions continues in parallel and may generate new Alerts. For each new Alert, AIM uses the Data Analyzer to query the network of key data and, wherever possible, merge the Alert into an appropriate ongoing Investigation Case. This functionality is key to ensuring efficient processing and to enable transparency for an investigator as new, potentially suspicious activities arise, in real time.

Note: For more information about merging alerts, visit Alert merge Rules.

Visualizing connections between core data to aid investigators

As the Data Analyzer network is populated with more and more data during the Alert Intake and Investigation Cases, the amount of information increases rapidly. The Visualizer allows investigators to clearly see the connections between the entities, which helps them arrive at appropriate conclusions more efficiently.

Displaying additional data within the Subject Profile

Sourced from the Data Analyzer network, the Accounts and Transactions tab displays all accounts and transactions that the Subject is directly linked to. The Alerts and Investigations tab shows all resolved and ongoing Alert Intake and Investigation Cases that are linked to the Subject. This data is key in researching the activities of Subjects, to understand their previous behavior.

Exploring data

Data Analyzer is not restricted to a set of pre-defined entities or relationships. Each consuming application can define and create entries for entities and relationships.
