“FY24 was a remarkable year for Entersekt as we strengthened our financial position with both top-line and bottom-line growth,” said Schalk Nolte, CEO of Entersekt. “Our strategic channel and reseller partners have provided an ability to expand into new geographies and reach more top tier financial institutions, while our Context Aware™ Authentication technology for digital banking fraud prevention and payment security is being recognized as both innovative and market-leading.”
