As a GASA foundation member, F‑Secure shares vital threat intelligence and works with other industry leaders to set the global anti-scam standard – driving the development of new solutions to protect people online.

Scams are becoming increasingly sophisticated, and it’s vital that we remain ahead of cyber criminals in their own game, said F‑Secure President and CEO Timo Laaksonen. By joining GASA, we’re doubling down on our commitment to not just react to scams but to proactively prevent them. This alliance is a critical step in making a safer digital future a reality for everyone, and it truly sets a new benchmark for the entire cyber security industry.

Through shared knowledge, innovation, and a unified global effort, F‑Secure and its GASA allies are working together to create a worldwide network where consumers are protected and empowered with the tools and knowledge they need to stay safe online.

I am very happy that F‑Secure is joining the Global Anti-Scam Alliance,” said Jorij Abraham, Managing Director of GASA. “F‑Secure has been protecting consumers from malware for decades and their experience with online scams is growing very rapidly as a result. F‑Secure will contribute a lot of knowledge to our growing network to better protect consumers from scams.
