SOFTSWISS has announced the launch of its Bug Bounty program, aimed at ensuring the highest level of security for partner brands utilizing the company's platform.
As part of this initiative, SOFTSWISS invites "white hat" hackers and independent cybersecurity researchers to identify vulnerabilities on the websites of casino and sports betting operators. Rewards of up to €3,500 (approximately 362,694 rubles) are offered for each bug discovered.
Evgeny Zaretskov, the Director of Information Security at SOFTSWISS, commented on the new initiative: "We care deeply about the safety of our clients and their players. Therefore, it is crucial for us not only to focus on protecting the products we develop but also to continuously verify our applications with the help of experienced external specialists and enthusiasts. By collaborating with the expert community, we can ensure a robust level of data protection and seamless operation for all our clients. SOFTSWISS proudly sets a new standard in cybersecurity by leveraging crowdsourced expertise," Zaretskov stated.
Participation in the program is by invitation only, as the company believes that a public approach could lead to an influx of irrelevant reports. "In this ever-changing landscape, even a minor error can result in significant losses for operators. The Bug Bounty program serves as an additional layer of protection for our current and future clients," Zaretskov added.
Aritem Buchkov, Deputy Director of Security at SOFTSWISS, emphasized, "Cybersecurity is a constant battle. No company can uncover all vulnerabilities on its own. This program allows talented hackers to legally test online casinos, helping us anticipate and defend against potential threats. It reinforces our commitment to providing the safest software and platforms in the gaming industry."
Meanwhile, BGaming has launched a new crash game called Top Eagle, featuring a top-down view.
