Regula Earns Double Recognition at 2025 Global InfoSec Awards—for the Third Year Running

RESTON, Va., May 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Regula, a global developer of forensic devices and identity verification solutions, earned two prestigious Global InfoSec Awards from Cyber Defense Magazine (CDM): one for the Best Identity Verification Solution and another for the Most Innovative Cybersecurity Blog. It's the
third year in a row
that Regula has earned recognition from CDM, reflecting the company's sustained excellence in innovation and industry leadership.
Cyber Defense Magazine, a respected voice in the cybersecurity sphere, for over a decade honors forward-thinking companies and leaders in its annual Global InfoSec Awards. This year, the expert jury selected only about 10% out of more than 3,000 contenders worldwide. According to CDM, winners stood out by 'delivering tomorrow's cybersecurity solutions today.'
Global InfoSec Awards 2025 for Regula
Benchmark innovation
In 2025, Regula was repeatedly awarded for its complete identity verification (IDV) solution built around
Regula Document Reader SDK
and
Regula Face SDK
. Together, these solutions cover every step of the identity verification journey—from authenticating physical documents to verifying a person's presence and identity through biometric analysis.
Regula's technology doesn't rely on static scans or uploaded photos. As the only technology that verifies all dynamic security features in IDs, it analyzes real documents and thus is able to detect even the most sophisticated forgeries. Also, Regula's biometric solution uses advanced liveness detection techniques to verify live facial data and stop presentation attacks like video injections, deepfakes, synthetic identities, or screen replays.
With support for 15,000+ identity document templates from 251 countries and territories, Regula offers a truly global solution trusted by more than 1,000 organizations and 80 border control authorities.
'Regula embodies three major features we judges look for to become winners: understanding tomorrow's threats today, providing a cost-effective solution, and innovating in unexpected ways that can help mitigate cyber risk and get one step ahead of the next breach,' said Gary S. Miliefsky, Publisher of Cyber Defense Magazine.
This year's Global InfoSec Award joins a growing list of accolades for Regula's innovative technology. Earlier in 2025, Regula earned Gold in the
Globee Awards for Cybersecurity
in the Identity Proofing and Corroboration category, marking an advancement over the Silver award of the previous year.
A trusted source for cybersecurity knowledge
Regula's second award recognizes the
Regula Blog
as the Most Innovative Cybersecurity Blog. With over 18,000 unique readers each month, the blog has become a valuable resource for IDV and forensic professionals worldwide, bridging technical expertise with real-world application.
What makes the Regula Blog stand out is its ability to combine:
Earlier this year, Regula's blog won the
Cybersecurity Excellence Awards
for Best Cybersecurity Blog. The jury recognized its expert insights, authoritative opinions, real-world fraud case analyses, practical guides, and forward-looking discussions of evolving security challenges.
'Winning two Global InfoSec Awards for the third year in a row speaks to the depth and consistency of our innovation. At Regula, we don't chase trends—we solve real problems. Whether it's protecting against deepfakes or helping professionals make sense of complex identity documents, our focus remains the same: provide secure, science-driven tools and insights our customers can trust,' says Ihar Kliashchou, Chief Technology Officer at Regula.

Regula Powers Ecuador's Plan to Modernize Every Border – From Airports to Maritime Ports

RESTON, Va., July 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Ecuador's border control authorities have significantly enhanced their identity verification capabilities by deploying a suite of advanced document examination devices from Regula. The nationwide upgrade, supported by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and local partner INSETK, brings automation, precision, and speed to the country's border checkpoints, which collectively process nearly 1.5 million travelers annually. The project is a major step in Ecuador's mission to modernize all land, air, and maritime entry points, including key international airports in Quito and Guayaquil, as well as northern and southern border crossings. These strategic locations now benefit from Regula's advanced forensic devices, which enable fast and reliable detection of fraudulent documents—critical in the fight against identity-related crime. The immigration officers of Ecuador during the training on how to effectively use Regula's devices Closing the gap with a set of forensic devices Previously, document checks at Ecuador border crossings were largely manual and supported by outdated equipment, often handled by just two officers per site. This made the process slow, error-prone, and vulnerable to sophisticated fraud. To address this, Ecuador's border checkpoints were equipped with the following Regula solutions: Regula's video spectral comparators are controlled via Regula Forensic Studio (RFS), a cross-platform software solution for advanced document checks. It enables precise measurements, image comparison, report generation, and scripted workflows for faster, consistent inspections. With RFS, officers can also verify MRZs, RFID chips, barcodes, and IPI—all without extra tools. For deeper document examination, border control officers have real-time access to Regula's Information Reference System (IRS), which provides synchronized reference images and lighting presets for fast, precise comparison of travel documents. RFS also integrates with Regula Document Reader SDK to automate travel document verification and prevent fraud through data cross-verification and robust authenticity checks. Importantly, Regula's software is backed by its proprietary identity document template database—the world's largest—featuring over 15,000 templates from 252 countries and territories , ensuring reliable validation at border checkpoints. Trusted results, faster than ever Since implementing Regula's solutions, Ecuadorian border control authorities have noticed notable improvements: 'Apart from the technology upgrade and fraud detection improvement at the border crossings, our collaboration with Regula demonstrated another success. The project was fulfilled very smoothly. From the beginning, we've received full support from Regula's team—they were always ready to help with any issue, even those caused by users on the ground. It's definitely a level of service that makes a real difference,' says Diego Calderon, Chief Executive Officer at INSETK. 'Border security is where precision, speed, and trust must converge. We're proud to support Ecuador in modernizing its checkpoints with tools that meet forensic standards while being easy to use in the field. This project shows how technology can turn critical inspection tasks from time-consuming to streamlined, without compromising security,' comments Arif Mamedov, CEO at Regula Forensics, Inc.
