Fraud rules vs. workflows: Why rules alone have a ceiling

While rules are the foundational starting point for fraud detection, they eventually hit a ceiling as business complexity grows. This blog explores the distinction between workflows as the strategy layer and rules as the tactical layer. It examines the risks of "hacking" rules to perform orchestration and why even real-time payment processors need a dedicated workflow layer to manage vendor costs, authentication flows, and population segments effectively.
