Arkose Labs has launched a private bug bounty program in partnership with Bugcrowd, a leading crowdsourced security platform, to enhance its defense-in-depth strategy. The private program will be reserved for elite hackers, while the public program remains open to all Bugcrowd's hacker community. Arkose Labs is an authentication system that uses a unique challenge-response mechanism to prevent fraud and has extensive testing processes in place to ensure maximum protection for its clients. By leveraging the expertise of Bugcrowd's Elite Crowd, Arkose Labs gains access to high-impact researchers with specific skill sets, allowing it to tailor its testing pool and retain more control over the program. The private program aims to provide continuous assurance of the stability and strength of its product features and gain insight into potential attack vectors.
