Ant Group Makes Trusted AI Solutions More Accessible to Support Industrial Collaboration in Digital Economy
14.9.2022 16:48:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
Ant Group today announced three initiatives to make trusted AI more accessible. This includes making its graph processing database TuGraph open source; launching an industrial-grade AI security testing platform; and unveiling a privacy-preserving computation open platform. Announced at the World Artificial Intelligence Conference (“WAIC”) in Shanghai, these actions aim to make trusted AI solutions more accessible to enable industrial multi-party collaborations in the digital economy.
A growing number of industries have been adopting AI technology at a fast pace, which has significantly increased demand for trusted multi-party collaboration solutions and AI systems that are secure, reliable and robust.
“We believe that Privacy-Preserving Computation, Blockchain, Graph-Processing Technology, Distributed Database and Green Computing are the fundamental technologies for a large-scale industrial application of AI in the digital economy. These fundamental technologies are critical for overcoming challenges arising from the surging demand for security and trust in multi-party industrial collaboration, surging need for data storage and energy consumption, as well as the rising complexity in managing relationships among different parties,” said Tao Wei, Vice President and Chief Technology Security Officer at Ant Group. “Ant Group has been continuously investing in the research and development of these technologies to facilitate more industrial collaborations in the digital economy.”
As part of the actions, Ant Group has also made TuGraph open source for global developers on Github. TuGraph is one of the key components in the Company’s large-scale graph-processing system and was jointly developed by Ant Group and Tsinghua University. The graph-processing technology has a wide range of applications, such as risk control, anti-fraud and knowledge graph.
TuGraph was awarded the World Leading Internet Scientific and Technology Achievements in 2021, and broke the throughput record in the audited results of the LDBC Social Network Benchmark (Interactive Workload) in August 2022.
Ant Group, China Academy of Information and Communications Technology (“CAICT”) and Tsinghua University also launched an industrial-grade AI security testing platform to provide developers a one-stop evaluation solution from adversarial tests to defense and reinforcements. This platform also helps developers recognize and predict model risks through a single click, building safer and more robust AI models and detect systemic risks in advance. The platform is embedded with independently developed adversarial-AI security computing engines, which can improve the computing performance by dozens of times. Meanwhile, the platform now offers robustness evaluation for global developers with more functions planned in the pipeline.
In July 2022, Ant Group made its privacy-preserving computation framework open source. The privacy computing platform released this time features a one-stop solution for industrial users to create privacy computation applications in various use cases, such as medical service, insurance claims, joint marketing and risk control. It also comes with the additional option to build applications without writing a single line of code.

ThetaRay, a leader in AI infrastructure for financial crime compliance, today unveiledSpot The Money Mule at Money20/20 Europe. The high-speed online game is a compliance twist on "Where’s Waldo" for the AI age, designed to bridge the gap between complex banking infrastructure and the public’s role in stopping global crime. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260602629234/en/ The game challenges players to find a money mule hidden in plain sight across five buzzing everyday scenes, from the morning rush at an airport to the vibrant rows of a Dutch Tulip Festival. “In the AI age, the most dangerous threats are those that blend perfectly into the speed of our digital lives,” said Garima Chaudhary, VP Financial Crime & Compliance AI at ThetaRay. “In the game, you look for a 'Known' face. In the real world, there is no obvious profile. While humans struggle to spot one person in a crowd, our AI monitors behavioral bas
The Open Group Launches the Open Footprint ® Standard, Edition 1.0 to Streamline Scope 1, 2, and 3 Emissions Management2.6.2026 10:00:00 EEST | Press release
The Open Group, the vendor-neutral technology and standards organization, today announced the release of the Open Footprint® Standard, Edition 1.0, that will help organizations streamline scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions reporting. The new standard is the first open emissions data model to address all three scopes, providing a comprehensive framework that enables organizations to collect and standardize data from their value chain and report across multiple jurisdictions. “There is an urgent need to streamline emissions data management and reduce the manual effort required to capture data within supply chains, perform data conversion, and report out to various regulators,” said Steve Nunn, President and CEO of The Open Group. “The Open Footprint Standard removes friction and lowers cost, helping organizations identify emissions reduction opportunities.” Key features of the model include: Standardized emissions data definitions and relationships Simplified emissions data sharing and interope
Thredd Renews and Expands Partnership with Caxton2.6.2026 10:00:00 EEST | Press release
Thredd, the AI-first issuer processing platform, today announced a five-year renewal and strategic programme expansion with Caxton, the leading payments solutions provider, reinforcing Thredd’s role as the company’s primary issuer-processor across consumer and corporate cards. Caxton, a leading UK payments provider, has partnered with Thredd since 2020 to power its multi-currency prepaid travel and expense cards. Customers can hold up to 15 currencies on a single card.
