Secfense at the 30th Economic Forum

Between September 7 and 9, 2021, together with the most important companies, politicians, and activists of the Polish economic scene, Secfense will take part in the thirtieth edition of the Economic Forum, which will be held in Karpacz. User Access Security Broker will be presented to the audience in one of the thematic blocks as part of the project of development, promotion, and internationalization of Małopolska SMEs – Małopolska Innovation Rocket.

Secfense participates in the Małopolska Innovation Rocket program.

The Małopolska Innovation Rocket competition is intended for companies operating in the area of innovation and contributing to the smart specialization of the region and planning to enter international markets.

Our current goal is foreign expansion, which is why we care so much to show ourselves to a wide audience – investors, foreign media, and representatives of the most important economic ecosystems – says Tomasz Kowalski, CEO, and co-founder at Secfense. – In Karpacz, we will also focus heavily on education. We intend to show everyone – including the politicians gathered there – that today it is impossible to function in organizations and companies without a global approach to protecting identity on the Internet, both for employees and users of all applications or systems.

Together with other winners, Secfense has the opportunity to appear at the largest innovation fairs in the world in Paris, Amsterdam, Madrid, Lisbon, Barcelona, Valencia, Berlin, and Helsinki, as well as take part in the European Congress of Local Governments in Mikołajki.

What we do, i.e. enabling easy and quick adoption of multi-factor authentication on any number of applications, even in very complex environments, fits firmly into the current realities not only in Poland but also in every global market – continues Kowalski. – Identity theft, phishing, and social engineering attacks are today an international problem that can be dealt with using intelligent solutions that do not interfere with the convenience and intuitiveness of use.

The Economic Forum is the most important and largest political and economic meeting in Central and Eastern Europe that has been organized for almost three decades. The motto of this year’s edition is “Europe in search of leadership”.

As every year, a rich substantive program with over 200 events awaits the participants. The most important people in the country and in the region will travel to Karpacz for three days: leaders of politics, economy, local government, outstanding representatives of the world of culture and science. The debates are reported by journalists from all over Europe.

Testimonials

We are faced with new challenges every day. We must always be one step ahead of the attackers and know what they are going to do before they do it. We are convinced that the User Access Security Broker will bring security to a new level, both for those working at the office and from home. For us, working with Secfense is an opportunity to exchange experience with developers who put great value on out-of-the-box thinking.

As part of the pre-implementation analysis, we verified that users utilize a wide range of client platforms: desktop computers, laptops, tablets, smartphones, and traditional mobile phones. Each of these devices differs in technological advancement, features, and level of security. Because of this, and also due to the recommendation of the Polish Financial Supervision Authority (UKNF), we decided to introduce additional protection in the form of multi-factor authentication mechanisms based on FIDO. As a result, users of our applications can log in safely, avoiding common cyber threats such as phishing, account takeover, and theft of their own and their clients’ data.

Before investing in Secfense, we had the opportunity to talk to its existing clients. Their reactions were unanimous: wow, it’s so easy to use. We were particularly impressed by the fact that implementing their solution does not require the involvement of IT developers. It gives Secfense a huge advantage over the competition, and at the same time opens the door to potential customers who so far were afraid of changes related to the implementation of multi-factor authentication solutions.

Even when the network and infrastructure are secured enough, social engineering and passwords can be used to gain control of the system by attackers. Multifactor authentication is the current trend. Secfense addresses this and allows you to build zero trust security and upgrade your current systems to passwordless applications within minutes, solving this problem right away,” said Eduard Kučera, Partner at Presto Ventures and cybersecurity expert – former Director in hugely successful Czech multinational cyber security firm Avast.

One of the biggest challenges the world is facing today is securing our identity online. That’s why we were so keen to have Secfense in our portfolio. They make it possible to introduce strong authentication in an automated way. Until now, organizations had to selectively protect applications because the deployment of new technology was very hard, or even impossible. With Secfense, the implementation of multi-factor authentication is no longer a problem, and all organizations can use the highest standards of authentication security.

Two-factor authentication is known to be one of the best ways to protect against phishing; however, its implementation has always been difficult. Secfense helped us solve that problem. With their security broker, we were able to introduce various 2FA methods on our web applications at once.
