Inkan.link Introduces Innovative Anti-Fraud Technology at CES 2025 Amid $5 Billion in Annual Losses from Email Scams
Inkan.link, a pioneering European deeptech company, made its debut at CES 2025, revealing a groundbreaking solution to one of the most pressing challenges faced by businesses today: Business Email Compromise (BEC). With yearly losses exceeding $5 billion, fraudsters have become increasingly sophisticated, often mimicking voices and writing styles of executives with alarming accuracy. In response, Inkan.link introduced Sealfie, an innovative platform transforming the way companies authenticate critical transactions.
A New Approach to Security
What sets Sealfie apart is its unique approach to security. CEO executives simply take a selfie to approve significant actions, instead of navigating through lengthy and complex verification processes. This simplicity is a game-changer: as Nicolas Thomas, founder of Inkan.link and a seasoned technology veteran, points out, traditional security methods are becoming increasingly obsolete in the face of rising impersonation attacks. He emphasizes, "If your CEO wouldn’t take a selfie to approve a major transaction, that’s a warning sign."
Partnership for Enhanced Security
At CES, Inkan.link announced a strategic partnership with ShareID.ai, aiming to evolve business transaction security even further. By merging their technological capabilities, the two companies are developing an ecosystem that ensures seamless verification of critical processes, allowing businesses to strengthen their defenses without adding burdensome training protocols. Instead of expecting users to learn security best practices, the system autonomously protects against fraudulent actions.
Understanding the Modern Threat Landscape
In a world where services like WormGPT allow criminals to create indistinguishable impersonations for less than $100 a month, businesses face a more dangerous climate than ever before. Traditional security mechanisms are no longer sufficient. Sealfie utilizes patented blockchain technology, employing multiple levels of verification to ensure that each transaction is legitimate. Thomas notes, "Our solution is designed to be as accessible as possible; we want organizations to begin safeguarding their operations immediately."
Available through major app stores, Sealfie can be deployed easily, with a subscription starting at €95 per user per month. For larger enterprises, custom solutions are available to integrate with existing security measures.
Live Demonstrations and Expert Consultations
Visitors to the Inkan.link booth at the Venetian Expo (Hall G - 60711) can experience live demonstrations of the Sealfie technology, learn more about enterprise integration, and explore investment opportunities. Additionally, attendees will discover how Sealfie can effectively guard against increasing threats posed by deepfake technologies and other sophisticated cyberattack methods.
A Vision for the Future
Inkan.link aims to redefine how businesses view digital security. By cutting the reliance on traditional methods and focusing on user-friendly solutions, they are not only tackling the immediate fraud crisis but also setting the stage for a more secure and accountable future. With the backing of the L3i Laboratory’s anti-fraud expertise, Inkan.link is well-positioned to lead the charge in combating the BEC epidemic that continues to plague industries worldwide.
