The Synectics Proof of Concept (PoC) helps fraud, risk and financial crime teams uncover hidden threats and spot new opportunities.

By securely comparing your organisation’s data with National SIRA – the UK’s largest cross-sector risk intelligence network – we help you identify risks you can’t detect alone.

Request a free Proof of Concept to:

  • Uncover hidden fraud and risk signals you previously missed
  • Validate the value of National SIRA against your own data, with zero commitment
  • Spot opportunities your current controls may be blocking.

Light-touch, confidential and high-impact, a Synectics PoC gives you the insight to act with clarity and confidence – at no cost and with no obligation.

Share a few details and our specialists will help you uncover hidden fraud signals and identify where your defences can be strengthened

  • The Proof of Concept made it easy to decide if the solution was right for us. We were able to get hands-on quickly, focus on the data, and easily assess fit against LendInvest’s needs. That clarity, and autonomy, gave us the confidence to reach a decision fast.

What is a Proof of Concept?

Using a sample of your most recent applications, we’ll tell you the risk - and opportunities - you missed.

We compare your chosen data against fraud and financial crime intelligence held in our risk consortium.

That database, National SIRA, is the UK’s largest source of confirmed and suspicious fraud data - contributed to by 180+ private and public organisations, including 80% of tier 1 banks and 9 out of 10 of the UK's largest insurers.

The first step to full visibility

A Proof of Concept is the first step that 95% of our members took before joining the National SIRA collective.

Insights you'd otherwise miss

See hidden fraud, the opportunities your current controls are slowing down, and the same cross-sector intelligence National SIRA members use every day

The process is secure, confidential and free. Your application data is only processed once you’re fully confident in how it will be handled

02. What is the National SIRA consortium?

National SIRA is the UK’s largest and most accurate risk intelligence network, bringing together 180+ organisations across banking, finance, insurance, and the public sector to collaboratively prevent fraud and financial crime. Continuously updated with rigorously verified, cross-sector risk data - including insights from Tier 1 banks, major insurers, and government departments - it underpins the country’s most advanced application fraud detection strategies.

By enabling real-time intelligence sharing, it helps organisations stop fraud earlier, onboard legitimate customers with confidence, and strengthen their defences against emerging threats.

03. How does Synectics keep data secure?

At Synectics, protecting data is our highest priority. Security is embedded into every stage of our process, ensuring all information is managed with the utmost care and compliance.

  • Secure transfer protocols
    All files are transmitted using SSL-hosted SFTP connections, restricted to validated IP addresses and dedicated folders for each organisation.
  • Encryption & password management
    Data can be encrypted for additional protection, and any required passwords are always shared through separate, secure channels.
  • Controlled access
    Access to our secure environment is tightly managed and limited exclusively to authorised Synectics teams. Any temporary permissions follow a strict least-privilege principle.
  • Compliance & best practice
    Our approach aligns with industry-leading security standards, incorporating encryption, audit trails, and proactive monitoring to safeguard data integrity.

04. How long will my data be stored?

Once the PoC is complete, all supplied data files and your PoC database are securely deleted in line with your agreed instructions.

05. How will my results be delivered, and what does the report include?

You’ll receive a clear, easy-to-understand results report that highlights exactly what the PoC uncovered. We’ll demonstrate both the hidden risks in your portfolio and the potential gains from strengthening and streamlining your fraud controls. The report also includes any associated financial impact, where available, helping you understand the real-world implications.

To support this, you’ll also receive a high-level PowerPoint summary that brings the key insights, trends and opportunities into focus, making it easy to share the findings with colleagues and stakeholders.
