Fuze, one of the fastest-growing digital assets infrastructure providers in the Middle East and Turkey, has announced a strategic partnership with AI cybersecurity firm Exaforce. The collaboration will see Fuze integrate Exaforce’s AI-driven security operations to enhance its regulatory compliance and reinforce the security of its stablecoin platform and broader digital asset ecosystem.
AI-Driven Security For Digital Assets
Fuze is deploying Exaforce’s AI-powered Managed Detection & Response (MDR) service, embedding it at the core of its compliance framework. This technology enables Fuze to automatically detect and resolve security issues, slash investigation times by up to 94%, and significantly reduce manual engineering hours. Built on a Zero Trust security framework, the platform provides advanced, real-time visibility across wallets, APIs, cloud infrastructure, and code repositories to continuously validate every interaction and identify anomalies.
“Security and compliance are the backbone of financial infrastructure,” said Srijan R Shetty, co-founder and CTO of Fuze. “By embedding Exaforce into Fuze’s stablecoin platform, we’re exceeding regulatory expectations and setting a new standard for how AI can safeguard digital asset ecosystems.”
Setting A New Benchmark For Compliance
This partnership strengthens Fuze’s position as a trusted infrastructure provider for banks, fintechs, and other financial institutions in the MENA region. The implementation of 24/7 monitoring and proactive threat detection lowers both operational and regulatory risk, ensuring a more transparent and globally scalable digital asset ecosystem.
Marco Rodrigues, co-founder and Head of Customer Engineering at Exaforce, added, “Fuze is pioneering the future of regulated digital assets in MENA, and we’re proud to power their security and compliance journey. With our multi-model AI for security operations, Fuze gains continuous visibility, faster investigations, and proactive defense against both external and insider threats.”
