Forensic Investigations and Intelligence
Welcome to IYE Global, where expertise meets innovation in the world of sophisticated international fraud and forensic investigations.
As per our remit, for decades, we have operated discreetly, working diligently under the radar to protect our team members’ identities as we engaged in the fight against sophisticated criminal activities. Our commitment to anonymity was crucial in ensuring the safety and effectiveness of our operations.
In light of escalating fraud scenarios, particularly exacerbated by the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken steps to shift our focus and extend our expertise to assist individuals who have fallen victim to scams.
With this shift comes a significant transformation, as we transition towards a more public-facing approach to business. This decision stems from our commitment to not only combat crime but also to actively assist those affected by it.
As we embark on this new chapter, we are making necessary changes to our commercial model to align with the needs of the individuals and organisations we aim to serve. Our wealth of experience, combined with a more visible presence, will contribute to a safer and more transparent environment for everyone.
Our visionary CEO chartered a course to bring our diverse investigative tools into the public eye. This led to the creation of Cobra AI, a revolutionary tool designed to combat crime with unparalleled degrees of efficiency.
Cobra AI represents the culmination of years of experience and a commitment to staying at the forefront of technological advancements in investigative services. This cutting-edge platform empowers individuals and organisations to take an active role in safeguarding their interests, making crime prevention and resolutions a shared responsibility.
At IYE Global, we believe that transparency and collaboration are essential in the fight against fraud. Our mission is to provide our clients with the insights they need to navigate the complex world of international investigations. As we continue to evolve, our dedication to excellence remains unwavering, ensuring that IYE Global stands as a beacon of trust and capability in the realm of crime prevention.
Join us on this journey as we redefine the landscape of investigations, one innovative step at a time. Together, let’s build a safer and more secure future.
