Don’t let our serious work fool you — we know how to have a good time, too! When the year wraps up, we wrap it up together.

Last week in Zagreb, we came together for our end-of-year party. Wins were celebrated, hard work got its moment, and the vibes were on point. Here’s a glimpse of the atmosphere captured with the glam cam.

In this Trust Talks session, Hartley Thompson III joins an expert panel — Abhinav Gupta (Block), Marwan Forzley (Veem), Ambreen Khasru (eToro), and Mark Nelsen (Visa) — to examine one of the most significant shifts we expect to accelerate in 2026: the industrialization of fraud.

Fraud rings are evolving into semi-autonomous systems capable of generating identities, testing defenses, and imitating real users with unprecedented accuracy. What once required sophisticated coordination will soon be possible for even small, unsophisticated groups.

As we move into 2026, the message is clear: organizations must prepare for a new era where fraud is faster, more automated, and far more believable.

The video below continues this forward-looking conversation from Trust Talks.
