Once SWIFT assets are identified, protocols and processes are revealed, monitored, and mimicked, allowing attackers to steal large amounts of money below the organization’s radar.

illusive networks Wire Transfer Guard™ protects your business, finances, and brand by stopping SWIFT attacks before they start. The solution identifies and suppresses SWIFT attacks long before SWIFT assets are breached, triggering alerts that keep you one step ahead of attackers: safe and in control.
