Overwatch Joins ICBA ThinkTECH Accelerator Program

Overwatch Data, an AI-powered threat intelligence platform to automate and streamline OSINT monitoring, announced today its selection to the Independent Community Bankers of America®’s (ICBA) ThinkTECH Accelerator Program, which kicks off May 19 at the ICBA Center for Innovation in Atlanta.

The selected companies are focused on supporting a variety of key areas that are top of mind for today’s community bankers, including SMB lending and credit decisioning, Earned Wage Access (EWA), front- and back-office operations, risk and fraud threat intelligence and predictive analytics.

“We are thrilled to participate in the ICBA ThinkTECH Accelerator” said Arjun Bisen, CEO and Cofounder of Overwatch Data. “Community Banks are often the backbone of local economies and we’re excited to serve them and their customers with our cyber and fraud threat intelligence platform.”

Overwatch Data is an AI-powered threat intelligence platform designed to automate and streamline OSINT, deep and dark web monitoring. Leveraging advanced AI agents, Overwatch continuously processes vast volumes of real-time data to identify critical threats such as compromised credentials, phishing domains, account takeover attempts, fraud methods, and emerging cyber TTPs. By transforming raw intelligence into actionable insights, Overwatch enables cyber, fraud, and security teams at financial institutions to rapidly detect, analyze, and mitigate threats—significantly reducing manual workload and enhancing decision-making speed and accuracy.

Since its inception, the ICBA ThinkTECH Accelerator program has connected the most innovative, cutting-edge fintech companies in the world with more than 1,400 community bankers and industry leaders — identifying and designing workable solutions that solve for today’s modern banking needs. Participants receive mentorship from a distinguished network of industry stakeholders through an immersive 10-week bootcamp and will present their refined offerings to community bank executives during a live demo at the Graduate School of Banking at Colorado in July.

“We are excited to have Overwatch Data join us as a member of our next ThinkTECH Accelerator,” ICBA Executive Vice President and Chief Innovation Officer Charles Potts said. “Consumer protections are one of the most important tools a community bank can leverage, especially if it’s automated. We look forward to support their journey as they tailor their platform to the needs of local institutions.”
