Fraud Detection:Introduction to Decision Engine

Last Updated:Mar 31, 2026

Fraud Detection provides a decision engine — a no-code, real-time risk control platform built on Alibaba Cloud Realtime Compute. Unlike traditional risk control systems that require deep expertise in code development and algorithms, the decision engine lets business teams configure and run policies through a visual interface, without developer or algorithm engineering skills.

The decision engine has been proven in e-commerce, media, and transaction scenarios, and is powered by Alibaba Cloud's risk control infrastructure.
