About Shield.

For decades, compliance in financial services has meant preventing market abuse, detecting insider trading, and ensuring data integrity. But the FCA's latest consultation paper, CP25/18, signals a clear shift: the focus is now on people, behavior, and culture, said Shield in a statement.

Shield, a leading digital communications governance and archiving solution (DCGA) for the financial sector, announced the appointment of Michal Milgalter as VP of Marketing. Milgalter joins Shield during a period of rapid growth, joining a seasoned leadership team that is driving core areas of the business as the company continues expanding into new markets and product domains. Milgalter will lead initiatives to strengthen brand presence in global markets, open new territories, and deepen the company's position as a driving force in the DCGA domain.

Shield, the global leader in digital communications compliance and governance, expands its leadership in data science as Asi Messica, Ph.D, joins as Vice President of data science. Her appointment underscores Shield’s continued momentum in delivering scalable, explainable AI—fully integrated across the compliance lifecycle— empowering financial institutions to take proactive, confident, and regulatory-aligned action.

Today, Shield introduces agentic AI within its AmplifAI toolkit—a groundbreaking advancement that helps organizations future-proof compliance, reasoning, planning and executing on key compliance tasks. This new class of agents brings intelligent, multi-step execution to compliance workflows, enabling organizations to act faster with greater clarity, and full confidence in a world of growing risk and regulatory pressure. Agentic AI represents a step-change in how compliance challenges are tackled. As complexity grows and data volumes soar, the ability to reason, plan, and act across workflows is becoming essential.

For compliance teams, data is only as valuable as their ability to access, audit, analyze, and act on it. Yet many organizations remain trapped by siloed systems, manual data extractions, workflows that slow down investigations and decision-making and even having to pay to extract their own data.

Shield, the cutting-edge compliance and communications governance platform for financial services, proudly announces its recognition as a Visionary in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Digital Communications Governance and Archiving Solutions (DCGA). “This recognition further solidifies Shield’s strategy and position as a forward-thinking DCGA vendor, thanks to our AI-focused innovations, exceptional customer-centric approach, and global coverage for today’s leading financial institutions,” says Shiran Weitzman, co-founder and CEO of Shield.

Shield is proud to announce the addition of Tim Estes, founder, fmr. Chairman and CEO of Digital Reasoning and current Chairman and CEO of Angel AI, as a special advisor to the CEO of Shield. This partnership is set to further elevate Shield’s AI-driven compliance and risk management solutions, reinforcing its position as an industry leader.

The more efficient you are, the quicker you can mitigate compliance risks. Shield is thrilled to announce the release of the latest version of its AI Digital Communications Governance (DCG) platform. The recent upgrades are meticulously designed to boost operational efficiency and amplify impact, ensuring compliance risk mitigation is faster and more intuitive.

Today, Shield, the leading platform for digital communications governance (DCG), announces additional enhancements to its data platform which increase scalability, robustness, and performance. These enrichments will further assist global financial institutions to connect the dots and read between the lines of their employees’ digital communications, across geographies, modalities, and data types.
