Introduction

Welcome to the RiskScout Data Integration documentation. This guide explains how to submit your data for BSA/AML monitoring and compliance analysis.

What is RiskScout?​

RiskScout provides automated transaction monitoring and customer risk scoring for financial institutions. By integrating your core banking data, we enable:

  • Transaction Monitoring - Automated detection of suspicious activity patterns
  • Customer Risk Scoring - Continuous risk assessment based on behavior and profile
  • Regulatory Reporting - Streamlined SAR and CTR generation
  • Alert Management - Centralized investigation workflow

Data Integration Overview​

Your institution provides data through secure file transfers. RiskScout processes this data and loads it into our analytics platform where it powers monitoring rules and risk models.

RiskScout uses standardized code values (prefixed with rs_) to normalize data across institutions. Your original codes are preserved, and we map them to our standard values during import.
