Anti-Fraud Innovation of the Year
Frogo Wins “Anti-Fraud Innovation of the Year” at SiGMA Central Europe 2025
Reading Time: < 1 minute
Frogo has won the “Anti-Fraud Innovation of the Year” award at the SiGMA Central Europe B2B Awards 2025. The award recognizes companies that are redefining how businesses approach risk, security and operational transparency.
Unlike traditional systems focused on blocking individual cases of fraud, Frogo’s approach is built around strategic prevention and real-time decision support. The platform helps businesses to understand their data, predict potential risks and act before losses occur. It combines artificial intelligence, behavioral analytics, graph-based forensics and – most importantly – deep industry expertise in a single environment that enables teams to identify fraud patterns and adapt instantly to changing traffic or threat dynamics.
“We’ve always seen fraud prevention as more than a reactive process,” said Volodymyr Todurov, CEO at Frogo. “Our goal is to help companies think strategically about risk, to build systems that recognize patterns, not just red flags. That’s what makes prevention sustainable.”
The SiGMA jury highlighted Frogo’s ability to balance automation with flexibility, allowing companies across sectors such as iGaming, fintech and e-commerce to maintain both security and user trust. Businesses using Frogo can automate complex fraud checks, reduce operational noise and focus on making informed, timely decisions rather than manual investigations.
