On Tuesday, Clue and Genius Sports announced their new integrity platform for the international sports community. Genius, which offers its integrity services to over 150 sports organizations worldwide, will use this new system to detect and prevent global trends in betting-related corruption and support investigations. It will also provide greater visibility for sports organizations around the world.
Clue’s intelligence platform, according to a press release, will increase efficiency and interoperability among Genius’s Integrity, Trading, Quality Assurance and Trading teams. They provide oversight and expertise in North America, Europe, and Asia.
Sports Integrity Gets a Boost
Uncovering potential match-fixing in sports can be challenging, although sometimes, teams make it easy. It’s a constant battle to identify potential manipulation. But innovation and technology are helping to tip the scales.
The new system will create customized dashboards and reports that can be used to identify and track criminals who attempt to manipulate or fix sporting events. It can also provide information on match officials, players, regions, and teams.
Clue’s digital vault will also house Genius’s complete library of integrity risk assessment documents. An expert team of analysts from the company will have access to every report and can analyze them.
Both organisations have worked proactively and collaboratively to ensure this integrity platform is able to identify, manage and share critical information, thereby reducing the risk to both the athlete and their 안전놀이터추천 sport,” said Phil Suddick, Head of Sport at Clue.
Those reports are linked together through a detailed red, green, or amber risk assessment, a calculation of the report’s level of integrity risk. Clue’s software will index each report against relevant blogs, and match footage and analysis.
A Perfect Fit
Clue has a number of high-profile partners around the world. The company already works with Amazon, Wimbledon, and Interpol, among others. It will gain access to new targets through the partnership.
Suddick joined the company this past February. In 2015, Suddick retired from law enforcement and joined the Tennis Integrity Unit (now the International Tennis Integrity Agency) as its Senior Intelligence Manager.
There, he was responsible for global intelligence and investigations into match manipulation in professional tennis. This involved working directly with Interpol, Europol and betting operators, regulators and https://envoytoken.io third-party data integrity services.
