Section 2 Launches AML Platform for Financial Crime Networks

Section 2 has launched as an AML and financial crime intelligence company with Hybrid Threat Central™, announced in a press release. The platform is built to identify criminal networks behind financial crime rather than reviewing only the individual transactions they generate.

Hybrid Threat Central is based on the company's Hybrid Threat Finance™ methodology. It adds revenue generation and operational sustainment to the traditional AML stages of placement, layering, and integration.

The platform includes TENet™, a library of financial crime targeting packages delivered through API or SFTP, TRACC™, a command center that maps threat intelligence to an institution's risk profile, and HTF Assist™, an analyst layer that produces case candidates for suspicious activity report filing.

Hybrid Threat Central runs on Google Cloud, with Vertex AI supporting its machine learning layer. Section 2 designed the system to work with existing transaction monitoring infrastructure rather than replace it.
