US Patent 11488171 Risk management and control method and device

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for a risk management method are provided. One of the methods includes: determining a candidate verification mode set comprising one or more candidate verification modes for a target event; determining output weights for at least some of the verification modes in the candidate verification mode set; and selecting a verification mode for risk management of the target event from the candidate verification mode set based on the output weights. In this method, multiple factors, such as risk type, device type, user preference, are taken into consideration in an quantification process when selecting a verification mode. Thus this method avoids excessive reliance on subject understanding of a transaction, improves the robustness of risk management against unauthorized transactions, and reduces unnecessary interference to authorized transactions.
