Intelyse specializing in intelligence-led risk solutions, has officially launched its operations in the United Arab Emirates. Headquartered in Dubai, Intelyse delivers discreet, integrated solutions that protect physical, financial, digital, and reputational interests.

As one of the safest countries in the world, admired for its security, stability, and forward-looking vision, the UAE has attracted entrepreneurs, investors, prominent dignitaries and family offices from across the globe.

Intelyse exists to help families, businesses, and trusted advisors to mitigate these risks with confidence.

“Our clients want reassurance that their interests and opportunities are protected from every angle. The rise of sophisticated cyberattacks, financial fraud schemes, and reputational risks from beyond the UAE’s borders underscores the need for a broader approach. We provide intelligence, context, and data so leaders can make clear decisions about their businesses and investments,” said Rafal Hyps, Chief Executive Offer, at Intelyse.

Intelyse operates from a Dubai-based 24/7 Global Security Operations Centre (GSOC), providing continuous monitoring and assessment of emerging risks worldwide. By combining intelligence, cyber and physical security, and risk advisory under one framework, Intelyse gives clients a single, clear and tailored view of potential vulnerabilities, and the strategies to manage them.

“Open-source intelligence and advanced analytics, including AI-driven methodologies, are now essential to understanding risk in real time. At Intelyse, we integrate human expertise with AI tools to connect patterns across jurisdictions, detect vulnerabilities earlier, and provide clients with the foresight they need to stay ahead of threats, and above all, make informed decisions” added Rafal Hyps.

Intelyse Services include:

• Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT): Collecting and analyzing publicly available data to uncover threats, reputational risks, and hidden insights across jurisdictions.

• Intelligence: Vetting potential business partners, senior executives, and investment opportunities; asset tracing; global fraud inquiries and investigations outside of the UAE; competitive intelligence and due diligence.
