Our goal is to enhance the integrity of financial transactions in Nigeria by making fraud detection technologies more widely available, based on research conducted at the esteemed Cyber Security department at the Federal University of Technology, Akure. These days, it's almost unheard of to conduct a financial transaction using physical cash. The number of fraudulent transactions is rising in tandem with the rise in the popularity of cashless transactions. We launched this endeavour to aid in determining the validity of transactions and so increase the rate at which fraud is detected.
