SEON expands APAC team as demand for fraud tech solutions rises
SEON has reported increased growth across the Asia-Pacific region as businesses in the area respond to heightened demand for real-time fraud prevention and anti-money laundering solutions.
Organisations such as Salmon Group Ltd, CryptoGaming.com, and Forever Network have recently adopted SEON's Know Your User and Know Your Customer capabilities to address rising digital fraud risks within diverse markets across Asia-Pacific.
To support its expanding client base, SEON has increased its workforce in Singapore and Jakarta, bringing in specialists in technical, sales, and support roles. This is designed to offer clients localised expertise and enable quicker response times.
Addressing the market complexity, Tamas Kadar, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of SEON, said, "APAC presents both extraordinary opportunity and operational complexity. The mix of advanced digital economies and rapidly growing markets creates a fragmented risk environment, and legacy point solutions can't keep pace. Our unified platform delivers real-time visibility and protection across the entire customer journey."
Businesses across the region are contending with more stringent regulatory requirements and evolving digital threats. The need to verify identities, manage payment risks, and maintain compliance without negatively affecting customer experience is creating new challenges for companies operating in sectors such as iGaming, fintech, and retail.
SEON's AI-powered technology combines digital footprint analysis, device intelligence, and real-time analytics—integrated into a single platform aimed at proactively detecting and preventing fraud.
Pauline Liu, Compliance Officer at TitanFX, described her company's experience using these tools: "SEON has quickly become one of the most effective and user-friendly fraud detection tools we've used to date. Its ability to provide real-time insights, coupled with detailed device tracking and risk scoring, has greatly improved how we identify and respond to suspicious activity. The platform is user-friendly, making it easy for both new and experienced team members to navigate and act swiftly. SEON has already proven to be a smart and dependable solution for our fraud monitoring needs."
Troy Nyi Nyi, Senior Vice President and General Manager at SEON, remarked on client needs in the region, explaining, "Our regional clients are increasingly prioritizing fraud prevention platforms that can handle APAC's payment complexity and varied identity verification methods. The iGaming, fintech and retail sectors in particular are seeking solutions that can operate across multiple jurisdictions without requiring separate tools for each market, which is why they're turning to SEON."
SEON's technology will be on display at the upcoming SiGMA Asia event in Manila, where Troy Nyi Nyi will participate in a session discussing how fraud prevention can be leveraged as a competitive advantage, especially for leaders in the iGaming and fintech industries.
SEON currently provides services to more than 5,000 businesses globally using a platform that combines real-time digital footprint analysis, device intelligence, and artificial intelligence-driven rules for fraud detection and regulatory compliance. The company operates from locations in Austin, London, Budapest, and Singapore.

Analysis: Trump's top general just undercut his ‘invasion' claims
One of the problems with making a series of brazen and hyperbolic claims is that it can be hard to keep everyone on your team on the same page. And few Trump administration claims have been as brazen as the idea that the Venezuelan government has engineered an invasion of gang members into the United States. This claim forms the basis of the administration's controversial efforts to rapidly deport a bunch of people it claimed were members of the gang Tren de Aragua – without due process. But one of the central figures responsible for warding off such invasions apparently didn't get the memo. At a Senate hearing Wednesday, Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman retired Lt. Gen. Dan Caine acknowledged that the United States isn't currently facing such a threat. 'I think at this point in time, I don't see any foreign state-sponsored folks invading,' Caine said in response to Democratic questioning. This might sound like common sense; of course the United States isn't currently under invasion by a foreign government. You'd probably have heard something about that on the news. But the administration has said – repeatedly and in court – that it has been. When Trump invoked the Alien Enemies Act to rapidly deport migrants without due process, that law required such a foreign 'invasion' or 'predatory incursion' to make his move legal. And Trump said that's what was happening. 'The result is a hybrid criminal state that is perpetrating an invasion of and predatory incursion into the United States, and which poses a substantial danger to the United States,' reads the proclamation from Trump. It added that Tren de Aragua's actions came 'both directly and at the direction, clandestine or otherwise, of the Maduro regime in Venezuela.' So the White House said Tren de Aragua was acting in concert with the Maduro regime to invade; Caine now says 'state-sponsored folks' aren't invading. Some flagged Caine's comment as undermining Trump's claims of a foreign 'invasion' in Los Angeles. Trump has regularly applied that word to undocumented migrants. But the inconsistency is arguably more significant when it comes to Trump's claims about the Venezuelan migrants. Perhaps the administration would argue that Trump has halted the invasion and it is no longer happening; Caine was speaking in the present tense. Caine did go on to cite others who might have different views. 'But I'll be mindful of the fact that there has been some border issues throughout time, and defer to DHS who handles the border along the nation's contiguous outline,' he said. But if an invasion had been happening recently, it seems weird not to mention that. And if the invasion is over, that would seem to undercut the need to keep trying to use the Alien Enemies Act. The Department of Homeland Security is certainly not in the camp of no invasion. On Wednesday, DHS posted on Facebook an image with Uncle Sam that reads: 'Report all foreign invaders' with a phone number for ICE. When asked about the image and whether the use of the term 'foreign invaders' had been used previously, DHS pointed CNN to a number of posts from White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller using terms like 'invade' or 'invaders' when referring to undocumented immigrants. Plenty of Trump administration figures have gone to bat for this claim. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said soon after Trump's proclamation that Tren de Aragua gang members 'have been sent here by the hostile Maduro regime in Venezuela.' Then-national security adviser Michael Waltz claimed Maduro was emptying his prisons 'in a proxy manner to influence and attack the United States.' We soon learned that the intelligence community had concluded Venezuela had not directed the gang. But Secretary of State Marco Rubio stood by Trump's claim. 'Yes, that's their assessment,' Rubio said last month about the intelligence community. 'They're wrong.' Trump administration border czar Tom Homan has said the gang was an 'arm of the Maduro regime,' and that Maduro's regime was 'involved with sending thousands of Venezuelans to this country to unsettle it.' The question of Venezuela's purported involvement actually hasn't been dealt with much by the courts. A series of judges have moved to block the administration's Alien Enemies Act gambit, but they've generally ruled that way because of the lack of an 'invasion' or 'predatory incursion' – without delving much into the more complex issue of whether such a thing might somehow have ties to Maduro's government. One of the judges to rule in that fashion was a Trump appointee, US District Judge Fernando Rodriguez Jr. So the intelligence community and a bunch of judges – including a Trump-appointed one – have rebutted the claim the underlies this historic effort to set aside due process. And now, the man Trump installed as his top general seems to have undercut it too.

Ananda Lewis dead at 52: Former MTV VJ battled stage four breast cancer after refusing double mastectomy
Ananda Lewis had died at the age of 52 after losing her nearly seven-year battle with breast cancer. The former MTV VJ — also known for The Ananda Lewis Show and her work on The Insider — passed away on Wednesday, June 11, according to a Facebook post made by her sister Lakshmi Emory. Lakshmi shared a black and white portrait of Ananda with the caption: "She's free, and in His heavenly arms. Lord, rest her soul [prayer emoji]' Ananda announced to fans in late 2020 that she'd been privately battling stage 3 breast cancer for two years. She also admitted that she'd avoided getting regular mammograms due to fear of radiation exposure. Last October, Ananda confirmed that her cancer had advanced to stage IV after deciding not to undergo a double mastectomy when she was first diagnosed. She told CNN that she had originally planned to 'keep my tumor and try to work it out of my body a different way.' But when her tumor eventually metastasized, Ananda realized that she probably 'should have' gone through with the life-saving surgery.

Protests live updates: At least 5 criminal cases related to LA protests, DA says
Tensions are escalating between President Donald Trump and California Gov. Gavin Newsom as protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement continue to grip Los Angeles and spread to New York City, San Francisco, Boston, Austin, Texas, and other cities. LA Mayor Karen Bass issued an overnight curfew for about 1 square mile in downtown LA, which has been the site of clashes between police and protesters over the last five days. Trump deployed 4,000 National Guardsmen and 700 Marines to LA against the wishes of Newsom and Bass. Newsom sued the Trump administration, saying they unlawfully "trampled over" California's sovereignty when they federalized the California National Guard.
