BforeAI recognized in 2024 Gartner® Cool Vendors
for Artificial Intelligence in Banking and Investment Services
BforeAI is a predictive security and preemptive cyber defense pioneer that protects customers' external attack surfaces. We started by bringing a solution that automatically predicts and preemptively disrupts and takes down external asset attacks before they harm our clients and their customers.
Now, we have extended our vision to create solutions for another challenge in the cybersecurity industry: credit card and PII fraud.
We have already been recognized by Gartner as pioneers in the emerging Preemptive Fraud Detection category. We’re honored to now be recognized as a Gartner® Cool Vendor, and we believe our approach will break paradigms in securing the financial industry.
From the Gartner Cool Vendor report:
"By working outside the standard payment cycle in this way, before any transactions (such as payments or other funds transfers) have been made, BforeAI can alert clients so they can intervene before criminals sell credentials stolen from the victims.”
That IS pretty cool, huh?
