A quick look at cybersecurity trend in the digital economy as cryptocurrency becomes widespread is definitely a wake-up called to crypto expert, professionals and enthusiast alike. However, despite these threats, the popularity of cryptocurrencies has continued to soar with new currencies been lunch every day. There are huddles every new technology must overcome for it to be accepted by the mainstream and cyber security vulnerabilities within the ecosystem further delays wider societal adoption hence, a decentralized economy needs a more advanced decentralized security architecture.

According to Cybersecurity Insiders,“ It is no news that $30 million worth Ethereum Currency was stolen by hackers through a cyber-attack launched on the three of the largest wallets on a recent note. The latest heist launched on the multi-sig wallets of Ether happens to be a major cyber-attack to have hit the Cryptocurrency space. However, the good news is that an anonymous white hat group managed to save over 377,000 ETH to multiple wallets which amount to $75 million”

Imagine an incentivized platform where whitehats are motivated to find vulnerabilities even before they happen, and certified penetration testers are linked globally to clients. Buglab is presenting an etherium based platform that connects companies with a global network of expert security researchers to tackle and forestall possible attacks within the blockchain ecosystem and beyond.

Traditional Penetration Testing and Bug Bounties

The billable hours model and pay-per-vulnerability structures of bounties have failed to address deficiencies in account and reward for value as clients could not get a full benefit for their spending. The large number vulnerability uncovered by researchers during bug bounties virtually adds little or no value to clients with no thorough analysis carried out. Available models have failed to leverage on skillsets available by assigning only a few pentesters to carry out assignments. Hence, the need for a more robust platform with the ecosystem that is efficient and resourceful enough to leverage on the abundance of talent to carry out assignments with skilled precision within a time frame is a required.
