Today’s digital world makes it simple for cyber-criminals to mask themselves, stay hidden, and operate anonymously undetected. Traditionally, cybersecurity was focused on protecting the perimeter of an organization’s computer infrastructure. Now, the security scenario has changed drastically. Security needs to go beyond IT to prevent savvy criminals from exploiting the infrastructure and enabling fraud, money laundering, and other illegal activities to exist and flourish in the digital world.
Raz Abramov, the Founder of EverCompliant is spreading awareness about the new sophisticated form of money laundering and cyber terrorism all over the world. His company, EverCompliant is a leading provider of Cyber Risk Intelligence and Transaction Laundering Detection and Prevention. EverCompliant’s focus is to detect and prevent transaction and money launderers, hidden transaction tunnels, and merchant fraud from entering the e-commerce ecosystem.
Finding The Path Towards Safe And Secure Technology
Started programming in middle school, Raz was always interested in emerging technologies. He received his Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and joined the Israeli army, where he served in the Cyber division. While serving the nation, Raz completed a Master’s degree. During his Master’s, Raz developed a thesis, which was mainly focused on finding an attack based on a flaw in the TCP protocol. After the army and further education, he did some freelance work until he was a co-founder at EverCompliant. Raz has been fascinated with the ‘cat-and-mouse game,’ bad actors initiate to find new ways to break the system, avoid detection, and exploit weaknesses. The game inspired Raz to come up with new ways to prevent, protect and build robust services against cyber threats.

Conquering The Challenges With The Inspiration From Co-Founders
EverCompliant’s Co-founders, Ron Teicher and Noam Raboinovich have been a source of inspiration for Raz throughout his professional journey. In addition, he consulted with many colleagues from high school, military service, and others. Raz feels that he was fortunate enough to meet them along his professional career. He believes that one of the key drivers to his journey towards success is the group he was a part of during and after the military service. Raz used to have many one-on-one conversations and an open exchange of knowledge with these groups through closed forums, which in turn, helped him to lead and achieve success with EverCompliant.
According to Raz, the main quality necessary for leadership is the ability to inspire people with motivation towards a common goal. This includes articulating the common objectives the entire company shares, helping people work together under the tremendous stress of startup, being aggressive and making difficult, sometimes unpopular, decisions to take the company forward.
