Group-IB, a leading creator of cybersecurity technologies to investigate, prevent, and fight digital crime, today announced a strategic partnership with Vienna-based RiskRiot (riskriot.com), a specialist consultancy focused on financial crime prevention and regulatory compliance. The partnership strengthens support for financial institutions across the DACH region by combining advanced cybercrime intelligence with deep regional expertise in risk, compliance, and fraud prevention.
Through this collaboration, financial institutions will benefit from enhanced fraud prevention and risk management capabilities powered by intelligence-led risk assessment and earlier identification of emerging fraud patterns. By integrating Group-IB’s cybercrime intelligence expertise with RiskRiot’s financial crime advisory services, organizations can better anticipate evolving fraud schemes, reduce operational exposure, and strengthen regulatory compliance frameworks.
Bridging intelligence and operational implementation
RiskRiot acts as a strategic and technical partner for financial institutions navigating increasingly complex regulatory and threat environments. By translating institutional needs into scalable technical and operational frameworks, RiskRiot helps organizations reduce compliance overhead, modernize anti-financial crime infrastructures, and ensure long-term adaptability.
Through this partnership, financial institutions will benefit from:
• Integration of advanced threat intelligence into fraud detection and AML workflows;
• Improved visibility into emerging fraud schemes and cybercriminal tactics;
• Scalable compliance and risk management architectures;
• Enhanced investigative capabilities supported by intelligence-driven tools.
The collaboration is particularly relevant for fast-growing fintechs and neo-banks facing scalability challenges, as well as traditional banks modernizing legacy systems amid accelerating digitalization.
Supporting financial institutions facing evolving fraud risks
As financial crime becomes more sophisticated and digitally driven, institutions require intelligence-led approaches that combine technological innovation with operational execution. Group-IB’s experience supporting global enterprises and law enforcement agencies in cybercrime investigations complements RiskRiot’s hands-on implementation model, ensuring that financial institutions can operationalize intelligence effectively.
Together, the companies will help organizations shift from reactive compliance models toward proactive and predictive risk management strategies.
“Financial institutions face mounting pressure to modernize compliance systems while responding to increasingly sophisticated fraud schemes. By partnering with RiskRiot, we combine world-class cyber threat intelligence with deep operational expertise in financial crime compliance. This enables organizations across the DACH region to strengthen resilience, improve investigative capabilities, and build scalable frameworks that anticipate evolving digital threats.”
Christoph Brecht - Channel Director, Group-IB
“Our mission is to make financial crime prevention frameworks scalable, efficient, and adaptable. Partnering with Group-IB allows us to integrate globally recognized threat intelligence into the operational environments of banks and fintechs. Together, we help institutions move beyond theoretical compliance and build practical systems that work in real-world conditions.”
Markus Kemptner - CEO and Founder of RiskRiot
The partnership reflects both companies’ commitment to supporting financial institutions as they navigate digital transformation, evolving regulatory requirements, and increasingly complex cyber and fraud risks.
