Forging this new agreement will provide exciting opportunities for both organisations – MIRACL to reach out to new geographical regions, and AGT to capitalise on providing the ultra-secure MIRACL passwordless authentication solutions to its customers.
Founded in Berlin about two decades ago, AGT is a leading cyber security solutions provider with a strong consultancy focus and extensive system integration expertise. Its’ mission is to deliver the latest developments to clients global markets, which has gained AGT a pioneering position in the Middle East and Africa’s cyber security markets.

The group serves in over a dozen countries including Europe, the Middle East, South East Asia, and Africa.
Michael Tanaka, COO at MIRACL comments, “With cybercriminal activity exploding off the back of the pandemic of 2020 it is critical that organisations re-assess their online safety procedures - whether that is to protect their own organisation or their customers. Partnering with AGT will provide their customers access to some of the best authentication technology available – and we look forward to sharing our MIRACL Trust solution at a series of webinars we have planned for their customers.”
Anas Chbib, CEO & Founder at AGT added, “Since the Covid19 pandemic started, we all were forced to go digital, which means more devices and more services went online. The need for easy and top secured authentication is highly increased these days.
With our partnership with MIRACL, we are presenting one of the best solutions to provide top secured authentication which made it easier for our clients.”
Having presented to the banking sector last month, Michael Tanaka has this week taken part in a webinar to AGT customers in the Utilities, Oil and Gas sector and will present at the final in the series on the 16th December to government and security agencies.
As a 100% software solution, MIRACL Trust® ID provides true two-factor authentication using the latest Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP) technology - no personal data is stored or transmitted. This eliminates the need for outdated security practices such as passwords, SMS Texts, push notifications and key-cards.
Usability is paramount, no additional user enrolment steps are required and users authenticate and sign in using a simple PIN. Without the requirement for hardware, mobiles or fiddly second steps, users love the simplicity whilst organisations appreciate the reduction in support and maintenance.
