How they describe themselves: Taxnology Innovations is building an EU wide, online, digital tax compliance center, where taxes can be easily managed through a web-based application with a data upload in a standard, pre-structured way.

We currently provide our system in Hungary, focusing to tax (VAT) registrations in Hungary, Hungarian VAT returns, and on-line invoicing, but we are developing our system, and soon we will expand our services to other EU markets. To do this, we are a seeking partnering opportunities and funding, where professional partners (like advisory firms) are able to deal with professional questions coming from our clients and want to participate in our project with implementation of the system and updates of the applicable rules.

How they describe their product/innovation: Taxnology Innovations’ web-based solution is designed to make business administration processes (tax management) digital, operable independently from any platform, while all the data will be stored in a structured way in a cloud, easily available also years later for any purposes, like for tax audits or financial analysis. We provide our system in Hungary, focusing to the Hungarian VAT registrations, VAT returns and on-line invoicing.

The data necessary for the VAT return should be provided in a pre-structured way (alternatively, we will adjust our interface to other systems), and our digital business machine will prepare the VAT return, which can immediately be filed.

With this solution tax management can be smooth and centralized.

How they describe themselves: Phishing and identity theft is a number one threat online right now.

60% of small companies that suffer a cyber attack are out of business within 6 months.

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) is the best available approach to protect against phishing.

That being said with time some MFA methods get compromised.

Data security teams have a problem deciding which method to choose and which apps to protect.

Secfense was founded in a response to increasing phishing scams problem.

Our mission is to always enable the best possible protection to all the apps within an organization.

No matter the technology change, we will always enable the best possible method to be deployed on any app.

How they describe their product/innovation: More than 80% of security breaches come from phishing.

IT security teams know that and often implements Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to the most vulnerable apps.

MFA adds extra protection, a second factor (SMS, u2f, etc.) is necessary to log in.

The problem? There are often thousands of apps that require a login and may cause a security breach.

It’s not possible to protect all apps with MFA due to the huge costs of rewriting existing apps so they can use MFA.

MFA protects 1 app and there’s still 99 to go.

Until now.

Secfense protects ALL apps within an organization against identity theft.We do that by:

• enabling ANY MFA method on ANY app
• without touching apps code so ZERO costs of integration
