SoftSwiss, a prominent software supplier in the iGaming industry, has announced its participation in Cybersecurity Awareness Month by launching a Bug Bounty Program. This initiative aims to strengthen the company’s cybersecurity measures by enlisting the expertise of white-hat hackers and independent security researchers to identify vulnerabilities and enhance security for its clients.
The Bug Bounty Program, which is by invitation only, ensures that only significant cases that meet specific requirements are reported. This approach encourages white hat hackers to pay close attention to the terms and requirements, resulting in higher-quality reports that focus on critical security issues. By keeping the program private, SoftSwiss aims to avoid the generation of irrelevant reports that can occur in public programs.
In addition to providing a platform for experts to identify vulnerabilities, the Bug Bounty Program also offers various financial incentives based on the severity and complexity of the discovered issues. This multi-faceted approach serves as an additional layer of defense, offering external, unbiased assessments from highly skilled security professionals.
Evgeny Zaretskov, Group Chief Information Security Officer at SoftSwiss, emphasized the company’s commitment to ensuring the security of its clients and their players. Zaretskov highlighted the importance of collaborating with external experts and enthusiasts to maintain a reliable level of data protection and operational continuity for clients in the ever-evolving cybersecurity landscape.
The Bug Bounty Program has been initiated with two products in the SoftSwiss portfolio, conducted in a dedicated test environment separate from iGaming project systems to prevent any disruptions to player experience or platform performance. Moving forward, SoftSwiss plans to expand the program to include more products and refine requirements to uphold the highest security standards across all platforms.
SoftSwiss, an international tech company with over 15 years of experience in developing innovative solutions for iGaming, has been at the forefront of introducing groundbreaking technologies to the industry. From pioneering the world’s first Bitcoin-optimized solution for iGaming to implementing cutting-edge cybersecurity measures like the Bug Bounty Program, SoftSwiss continues to set new standards for security and innovation in the iGaming sector.
