CAMS Fraud Reporting: Visas current fraud reporting system depends on two main componentsa
winforms and command-line based fraud processing module, and a web-based data entry and reporting
application. Visa did not have source code for any of the winforms or command-line applications supporting
the website and requested that they be decompiled from IDL using RemoteSoft Salamander and rewritten.
The rewritten solution consists of a C#/SQL Server winforms processing application using password-less
PGP to handle fraud processing and data manipulation, as well as a ASP.net/VB.net/SQL Server web-based
application to allow users to see and modify the status of suspected and confirmed fraudulent transactions.
Through the web-based application, users can update and modify the status of an existing account, as well as
generate reports on the status of groups of accounts.

ASP.net Portal: Responsible for developing a portal in which trade and accounting data can be distributed to
users. Designed Javascript functions to override the default .net postback and allow data from third party
DHTML controls to be passed back to the event handler. Users are assigned to groups, and privileges can
then be assigned to users as to which data the user is allowed to see. A user or group can be allowed limited
access to the applicationfor example, allowed to see trades only for a particular office or allowed to see
portfolio information for a specific account. The application is extensible; new privilege types can be added
to the application as new data becomes available.
