One platform.
Built around how criminals actually operate.

Hybrid Threat Central™ is Section 2’s AI-native financial crime intelligence platform — built on the Hybrid Threat Finance™ methodology and powered by TENet™, TRACC™, and HTF Assist™.

The industry isn’t failing for lack of investment

It’s failing because the underlying methodology is wrong. For decades, AML systems have monitored transactions in isolation — generating alert volumes that bury analysts in false positives while criminals operate freely between the lines.

The result: a broken system where criminals remain in the dark, exploiting the information gaps within and between financial institutions. You can’t find an enemy you haven’t defined.

$
$200B+ in compliance costs
Annual global cost of compliance by financial institutions, with less than 1% of illicit funds recovered.
Poor detection
Estimated 2% success rate, a 98% failure rate in detecting financial crime through conventional transaction monitoring.
85–95% false positives
Rule-based systems and AI models produce overwhelming false positive rates, burying investigators in noise and missing the false negatives.

Hybrid Threat Central™ — the unified intelligence layer

Hybrid Threat Central™ (HTC) sits alongside your existing transaction monitoring system, augmenting it with actor-centric intelligence your TMS was never built to produce.

HTC ingests your alert queue and curated threat intelligence from Section 2’s analysts. It returns structured threat networks, targeting packages, and investigation-ready case candidates.

  • Threat networks, not isolated transactions — surface the actors hidden in your alerts
  • Investigation-ready outputs — targeting packages structured for SAR filing
  • Built to integrate, not replace — works alongside your TMS and case management
  • 314(b) intelligence sharing — structured consortium intelligence built in
  • Powered by TENet™, TRACC™, and HTF Assist™ — three specialized capabilities, one unified platform

TENet™ — the targeting package library for precision in financial crime detection

TENet™ — the Threat Entity Network — is a continuously updated library of financial crime targeting packages built on the HTF™ methodology, covering all five stages of the financial crime lifecycle. TRACC™ identifies which packages your institution should prioritize; TENet™ deploys them in your existing TMS.

  • Decodes complex financial crime patterns — surfaces what traditional systems miss
  • Integrates with existing AML monitoring — no rip-and-replace required
  • Delivered via API/SFTP — daily detection report updates
  • Grounded in real-world investigative tradecraft — plus academic methodology

TRACC™ — the controls map between intelligence and risk

TRACC™ — the Threat Risk Assessment Command Center — overlays dynamic HTC threat intelligence with your institution’s own risk profile, providing a controls map interface that identifies your financial crime risk exposure and informs which TENet™ Targeting Packages should be prioritized in your transaction monitoring program. Proactive, not post-mortem.

  • Overlays threat intelligence — with firm-specific inherent risk factors
  • AI-driven policy recommendations — tied to your actual exposure
  • Real-time monitoring — of risks your institution faces by geography
  • Regulator-ready insights — not just dashboards

From risk profile to SAR-ready case — three capabilities, one platform

Enterprise architecture, intelligence-grade security

Hybrid Threat Central™ is built on Google Cloud infrastructure, with Vertex AI powering the machine learning layer that operationalizes Section 2’s curated threat intelligence at scale — designed for the requirements of Tier-1 financial institutions.

All of it powered by Hybrid Threat Finance™

The traditional AML model covers three stages: Placement, Layering, and Integration. HTF™ extends it with the two stages the industry has always ignored — Revenue Generation, where criminal proceeds originate, and Operational Sustainment, where threat actors reinvest to fund ongoing activity. Hybrid Threat Central™ operationalizes all five. TRACC™ and TENet™ apply them.
