CIP is driven by the principal need to detect and
 prevent fraudulent access to taxpayer data and prevent organised repayment fraud.
 Attribute Reputation is the process through which large amounts of data are collated from tax transactions to glean insights into common attributes. In particular, we assert their validity and derive risk scores to transactions based on whether the attributes in question, or other attributes used in combination with that attribute, have been used in historic transactions associated with past suspicious or fraudulent activity.
 Collaboration with other data product and front-end product teams will form the core of creating a frictionless customer experience to exploit the digital audit data that CIP holds.
 Insights from Attribute Reputation are crucial for the company's services, and the team is pioneering data sharing with other government departments and local authorities.

Consideration for delivering high-volume, high-availability and low-latency services
Improvement of our existing services
Reducing our maintenance efforts through incremental re-architecting - e.g. reducing the number of technologies that are required to support the pipeline & using managed services where appropriate.
