The XTD Velocity Partner Alliance, spearheaded by Simon Emery, Global Head of Strategic Partnerships at Verimatrix, provides resellers, MSSPs, system integrators, and cybersecurity firms with comprehensive resources to deliver AI-powered mobile app shielding, endpoint threat detection, and response solutions.

“With the Verimatrix XTD Velocity Partner Alliance, we're redefining how cybersecurity providers and channel partners collaborate to accelerate app protection at scale,” said Jon Samsel, Global Head of Cybersecurity Business at Verimatrix. “Our expanded partnership with Risk Associates has already resulted in six banks choosing Verimatrix to safeguard their applications—and we’re just getting started. Strategic alliances like this ensure that financial institutions can leverage our award-winning technologies to protect their app code, customer data, and brand reputation with confidence.”

Having successfully deployed Verimatrix XTD app protection for fintech and banking institutions since last year, Risk Associates brings over 20 years of cybersecurity expertise and serves as a trusted MSSP for top brands and startups across the region.

It’s dedication to shielding businesses from the latest threats, including mobile-based attacks, matches well with the opportunity to offer its customers the Verimatrix XTD suite that powerfully protects mobile app owners from reverse engineering, application repackaging attacks, dynamic modification, man-in-the-device attacks while also providing anti-Frida, anti-emulator and anti-debugger defenses.

Rahim, Chief Operating Officer at Risk Associates. “Verimatrix’s powerful yet easily-to-implement XTD technologies provide tremendous value to customers through extensive threat visibility and remediation that is often lacking in vulnerable apps that remain crucial for enterprises and their users.”
