ITU Approves Ant Group‑Led Interactive Intelligent Risk Control Standard
The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) has officially adopted an Ant Group‑initiated international standard for interactive intelligent risk control, outlining technical capabilities such as interactive functions and machine‑learning abilities to enhance proactive fraud detection across the industry.
Recently, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) website announced that it has officially approved an international standard for interactive intelligent risk control technology, a project led by Ant Group.
The standard was initiated at the ITU‑T SG17 plenary held from May 10 to May 20, where 89 proposals from around the world were reviewed, 281 experts from 39 countries discussed them, and 15 new projects were approved.
The newly approved standard, titled “Technical Capabilities of Interactive Fraud Detection,” defines the technical abilities required for interactive risk control in fraud detection, including the definition of interactive risk‑control technology, required interactive capabilities, and machine‑learning functions.
ITU, a United Nations subsidiary and one of the three major global standard‑setting bodies, oversees information and communication technology standards and previously defined the 5G mobile network specifications; it now includes 193 member states and over 700 enterprises and academic institutions.
Unlike traditional passive risk‑control methods, interactive risk control leverages breakthroughs in trusted computing on terminals, intelligent multimodal human‑computer interaction, and adversarial AI to proactively intercept risks, significantly improving anti‑fraud effectiveness. Ant Group’s interactive risk‑control robot, launched in 2019, achieved a 90% call‑answer rate among elderly users and increased the overall stop‑transfer rate by 40%, protecting nearly CNY 54 billion in 2021.
Interactive risk control is a key component of Ant Group’s “IMAGE” intelligent risk‑control system, which comprises five modules: I (Interactive), M (Multi‑party), A (Adversary), G (Graph), and E (Edge‑to‑cloud), each addressing different aspects of fraud prevention.
While establishing the international standard for interactive risk control, the IMAGE framework will continue to pursue additional technology standards, using standardization to drive industry development and enhance its global competitiveness.
