SHIELD Unveils Engineering Hub in Bengaluru

SHIELD has marked its presence into India, one of the world’s most rapidly growing mobile markets. The move comes on the heels of successful partnerships with ShareChat, MOJ, and Carandbike, and reflects the company’s ongoing commitment to expanding its client base across India. SHIELD intends to stay true to its mission of assisting digital businesses around the world in securing their ecosystems and increasing user trust and safety.

Mobile fraud attacks have plagued fintech, mobility, gaming, and social apps, despite their exponential growth. Account takeovers, fake accounts, incentive abuse, and payment fraud are examples of well-known attacks, while in-game and user-merchant collusion are examples of more complex threats. SHIELD’s risk intelligence solutions will assist in alleviating the fraud pain points that local businesses have been dealing with on a regular basis.

SHIELD combines cutting-edge device fingerprinting with over a decade of domain expertise in the mobile industry, powered by the latest artificial intelligence technology, to provide real-time risk intelligence to rapidly growing businesses. Its comprehensive solution suite will enable local businesses to confidently stop fraud, build user trust, and grow without risk.

SHIELD’s plan to expand its engineering capabilities with a world-class team includes the construction of the facility. It will house teams of India’s top tech talent in machine learning, software development, R&D, and analytics. SHIELD is aggressively recruiting and plans to expand its current Bengaluru team to 100 engineers within the next few months.
