Real-Time Fraud Detection System

Real-time ML pipeline

Real-Time Fraud Detection was forged from urgency: threats shouldn't wait for analysis. Built on the backbone of Spark, Kafka, and Cassandra, I created a pipeline where every transaction is watched, every pattern is learned, and every fraud attempt is caught - all in the blink of an eye.

Project Vision

Detect fraudulent transactions in real-time with high accuracy.

Core Process

The process of Developing it.

Simulated 100 customers and 10K+ transactions, stored in Cassandra via Spark SQL, trained Random Forest model with Spark ML, implemented Kafka streaming for real-time prediction, and built dashboard with Spring Boot.

Build notesWhat I built

03
  1. Engineered a real-time fraud detection pipeline using Spark ML with Random Forest classifier, processing 10,000+ transactions from 100 customer profiles stored in Cassandra, achieving real-time fraud classification by optimizing Spark SQL queries and implementing efficient preprocessing workflows.

  2. Built a Kafka streaming ingestion system that enables real-time transaction monitoring, integrating with Spark ML pipeline for instant fraud prediction, creating a system where every transaction is watched, every pattern is learned, and every fraud attempt is caught in the blink of an eye.

  3. Developed a comprehensive dashboard using Spring Boot and Flask REST APIs, providing real-time fraud detection insights and transaction analytics, enabling financial institutions to monitor and respond to fraudulent activities immediately with high accuracy and minimal latency.
