The Gartner® Hype Cycle for Government Tax and Revenue, 2026 looks at the technologies helping tax and revenue authorities modernize legacy systems, close fiscal gaps, and stay ahead of increasingly sophisticated financial crime.
This year’s analysis shows how Generative AI is reshaping financial crime detection — helping authorities counter advanced threats like deepfakes and AI-driven phishing — while Self-Supervised Learning (SSL) is emerging as a high-benefit technology for catching fraud patterns with no historical precedent.
XTN Cognitive Security is recognized as a Sample Vendor in both categories: Generative AI in Financial Crime Detection and Self-Supervised Learning for Fraud Detection.
As tax authorities worldwide invest in mature, innovative technology to reduce operational risk, we’re proud to be named among the vendors shaping that path forward.
We’re not stopping here. Every day, our team works to keep our solution at the pace of Generative AI — and we’re already deep into Agentic AI, publishing monthly insights on how the fraud landscape is evolving in this new era.
