White Ops Reintroduces Itself as HUMAN, Signaling Cybersecurity Company's Dedication to Protecting Enterprises from Bot Attacks
SINGAPORE, March 30, 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

Rebrand reinforces HUMAN's mission to protect the integrity of the internet by 
disrupting the economics of cybercrime 


Since 2012, White Ops(https://www.humansecurity.com/) has been on a mission to 
protect enterprises from bot attacks to keep digital experiences human. Today, 
the company takes a leap forward by reintroducing itself as HUMAN. The new 
company name more authentically represents HUMAN's values, its employees (who 
they have always referred to as humans) and the digital community it protects. 
The announcement reflects the company's strong commitment to equality and 
diversity and marks a renewed pledge to carry out the team's long-held mission 
of protecting the integrity of the internet by disrupting the economics of 
cybercrime. 

"Today we officially changed our name to HUMAN. It represents what we are here 
to do: protect the integrity of the internet and our customers from bot attacks 
to keep digital experiences human," said Tamer Hassan, CEO and co-founder of 
HUMAN. "Over the last decade, our incredible team of humans has seen 
sophisticated human-like bots designed to do many things. This includes taking 
over accounts, manipulating popularity and consensus, stealing sensitive data, 
interacting with media and advertising, and sniping or scalping goods and 
services online, to name just a few."

Hassan first 
announced(https://www.humansecurity.com/blog/changing-the-company-name) that a 
new identity was in the works in October 2020. Over the past six months, the 
brand team spoke to customers, partners, analysts, industry leaders, employees, 
family and friends, and the overwhelming response was to move forward with 
HUMAN. As part of the rebrand, HUMAN plans to reinforce the mission by infusing 
humanity into all-digital experiences.

"We reviewed thousands of potential names and we kept coming back to HUMAN, a 
theme we've embodied since 2014. HUMAN best reflects our company's journey and 
captures the unique characteristics of our culture and values," said Dan 
Lowden, CMO of HUMAN. "We fight every day to keep the internet human and 
protect our customers' digital experiences. This new identity galvanizes our 
vision and strategically positions us to define the future of the cybersecurity 
market on our terms."

Bot attacks are impacting business in every corner of the internet, and are a 
much bigger problem than most companies realize. The company's Human 
Verification Engine protects applications, APIs, digital media from bot 
attacks, preventing losses and improving the digital experience for real humans.

"Knowing who's real is among a handful of enduringly hard problems on the 
internet," continued Hassan. "The potential economic impact is surreal, and so 
is the impact to modern security. If you could look like a million humans 
online, what could you do? The answer is a lot of bad things. And that's why 
the work we do is so important."

This announcement comes at the heels of HUMAN's recent acquisition( 
https://www.humansecurity.com/newsroom/white-ops-announces-acquisition-by-goldman-sachs-merchant-banking-clearsky-security-and-nightdragon) 
by Goldman Sachs Merchant Banking Division, in partnership with ClearSky 
Security and NightDragon, whose leadership fully backed the new identity. 
Additionally, HUMAN now verifies the humanity of more than 10 trillion 
interactions per week, protecting many of the largest enterprises and internet 
platforms. In 2020, the company saw 34% growth in its customer base and 30% 
global growth across their teams, demonstrating tremendous market momentum. 
HUMAN aims to implement additional measures to further bolster its vision of 
equality and diversify its team, including a newly created 
role(https://boards.greenhouse.io/whiteops/jobs/2940330) to champion Diversity, 
Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) and Training and Development.
