Fraud, waste and abuse continue to cost state and local governments billions each year — especially in high-stakes areas like Medicaid, SNAP and other programs. Agencies need a way to shift from reactive investigations to initiative-taking prevention.

Join us for a solutions-driven discussion on how government agencies are using advanced analytics to detect and prevent fraud before it impacts critical services and budgets. This live webinar will explore how data-driven approaches can help uncover hidden vulnerabilities across systems, users, and access points.

Drawing on real-world examples, our expert panel will cover:

  • How to use analytics to surface suspicious patterns and anomalies early
  • The intersection of cybersecurity, access control and fraud prevention
  • Strategies for cross-departmental collaboration to reduce exposure
