Abstract/Index

Theory/literature review. Credential stuffing. RBA (Risk-based authentication). Highly imbalanced data classification. Methods. Dataset description. Analyzing the trend of failed/total login attempts in detail. Comparison between most popular countries in terms of both total/failed login attempts. Inspecting the “round-trip time [ms]” feature in more detail. Geo-distribution of account takeover instances. Relationship between the target and other predictors. Is there any hidden information behind “user ID” that could have an impact on the target? Clustering the dataset after removing “is account takeover”. Data preprocessing. Model building. Performance metrics. Results and discussion. Model results on the entire dataset. Model results on the under-sampled dataset.
