Branta, a leader in advanced Bitcoin payment verification, has partnered with Amboss, a provider of payment operations solutions for the Bitcoin Lightning Network.
This strategic alliance introduces an innovative risk management solution that enhances the security of irreversible Bitcoin transactions, addressing growing concerns about fraud and illegal activities. By integrating Branta’s verification technology with Amboss’ compliance tools, the partnership provides businesses with a comprehensive approach to mitigate risks and uphold higher security standards within the Bitcoin and Lightning Network ecosystems.
The need for such solutions has been underscored by high-profile incidents, such as the February 2025 Bybit hack, where nearly $1.5 billion in cryptocurrency was stolen. This attack revealed vulnerabilities in transaction processes. It demonstrated how sophisticated cybercriminals can bypass even advanced security measures. Since Bitcoin transactions are irreversible, they cannot be recovered once funds are moved, leaving businesses vulnerable to malicious attacks.
In response to these risks, Branta and Amboss have joined forces to provide businesses with a secure and efficient method for managing transactions and protecting against client-side and server-side exploits. This collaboration aims to restore trust and safeguard enterprises by ensuring that every Bitcoin payment is verified, compliant, and secure.
Jesse Shrader, CEO & Co-Founder of Amboss, highlighted the critical role of security in digital payments, particularly with irreversible transactions like Bitcoin. He announced a partnership with Branta to enhance transaction security and efficiency while mitigating fraud and compliance risks. Keith Gardner, CEO of Branta, noted that their collaboration addresses the urgent need for reliable risk management in the Bitcoin and Lightning ecosystems. Combining Branta’s real-time payment verification technology with Amboss’ compliance tools gives businesses the confidence to operate transparently. The solution, Branta Powered by Amboss, features Branta’s Guardrail technology for seamless payment verification and supports adherence to regulations such as AML and OFAC. This partnership bolsters defences against cyber threats, enabling financial institutions to adopt Bitcoin and Lightning payments confidently.
