Cyabra Secures Six-Figure Annual Contract with Leading Asia-Pacific Banking Institution

Expansion into regulated financial services highlights accelerating demand for AI-driven narrative intelligence, official channel protection, and anti-impersonation fraud defense

New York, NY, Sept. 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cyabra, Inc. (Nasdaq: CYAB) (“Cyabra” or the “Company”), an artificial intelligence (“AI”)-powered platform that helps governments and enterprises detect coordinated manipulation and protect digital trust, today announced a six-figure annual enterprise agreement with one of the largest banking institutions in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region.

The contract marks a key milestone in Cyabra’s expansion into regulated financial services, equipping executive leadership and security teams with decision-grade intelligence to distinguish genuine customer sentiment from synthetic, orchestrated manipulation.

As financial institutions face sophisticated threats spanning both brand reputation and financial crime, Cyabra’s platform delivers continuous threat detection across major digital and social channels to safeguard the bank’s brand, official channels, and customer trust. Under the terms of the agreement, Cyabra will deploy its platform across four key operational areas:

Sentiment Integrity and Narrative Protection: Monitoring social platforms to identify coordinated networks of fake accounts amplifying reputation-damaging narratives, providing leadership with a clear, defensible read on authentic customer discourse versus manipulated campaigns.
Official Channel Safeguards: Detecting and flagging inauthentic accounts that engage directly with the bank’s official social channels, preventing malicious actors from manufacturing the appearance of organic customer backlash.
Anti-Impersonation and Fraud Prevention: Identifying brand impersonation schemes and scam operations targeting consumers on social platforms, adding a critical financial-crime defense layer to the bank's digital risk framework.
Evidence-Led Operational Action: Delivering structured, evidence-based reporting that enables internal communications, risk, and security teams to execute proactive, targeted mitigation rather than reacting after damage has occurred.

“Financial institutions operate on trust, making them prime targets for both coordinated narrative attacks and impersonation-driven fraud,” said Dan Brahmy, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Cyabra. “We believe that securing a six-figure agreement with one of APAC’s premier banking institutions underscores our momentum in regulated enterprise markets. By uniting reputational protection with financial-crime defense, Cyabra provides the actionable evidence needed for financial leaders to defend their operational integrity with confidence.”

This agreement reflects an accelerating trend among Tier-1 financial institutions to treat online narrative threats and brand impersonation as core operational risks. By providing scalable Software as a Service solutions that meet strict regulatory and compliance standards, Cyabra continues to deepen its commercial footprint across global banking, national defense, and enterprise sectors.

This agreement also builds on Cyabra's recent recognition as a Market Shaper in the inaugural June 2026 Gartner® Emerging Market Quadrant for Narrative Intelligence - Startup Vendors, in which Gartner, Inc. formally defined and assessed the narrative intelligence market for the first time¹.
