**Transparency for data access:** Cyberdesk develops an identity-centric data security platform that shows who accesses which data – down to the file level. The Munich startup aims to solve the biggest security risk in companies: unclear and excessive access rights. With strong growth, a top team, and a clear vision, Cyberdesk wants to redefine Europe’s data security. (Photo: A. Heddergott / TUM)

Fusion Wealthpilot Finaplus — **Wealthpilot merges with Finaplus:** The Munich software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform Wealthpilot now belongs to the Finaplus Group. This strengthens Finaplus’s platform offering in the wealth-as-a-service sector and further expands its position in the German-speaking market. Through the integration, Wealthpilot customers will no longer need many of the standalone solutions previously used, which is intended to simplify processes and make technology deployment more efficient.
