Arkose Labs, the global leader in bot management and account security, today announced it ranked No. 142 on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500™, a ranking of the 500 fastest-growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences, fintech, and energy tech companies in North America, now in its 29th year. Arkose Labs also ranked as the No. 22 fastest-growing company in the San Francisco Bay Area on this year’s list. The company grew 1,005% during this period.
Kevin Gosschalk, founder and CEO, Arkose Labs points to a strong product-market fit, solution inventiveness, enterprise-grade compliance strategy, an enviable customer base, and a dedicated Customer Advisory Board as the key factors in the company’s growth. The massive escalation in bot and human fraud farm attacks continues at unprecedented levels, with a 121% increase in Q2 over Q1 2023. In addition the company’s battle-tested, award-winning Arkose Bot Manager platform is the only true enterprise-ready global solution available on the market. The most globally recognizable brands select Arkose Labs because of the efficacy of its technology.
Gosschalk said, “We’re actioning our corporate strategy around two transformational issues: generative AI (GenAI) and cybercrime-as-a-service (CaaS), because they are contributing significantly to the ‘what’s possible’ in fraud, thus the steep rise in attacks. Today bots can easily be purchased from the dark web and seemingly legitimate commercial sites to commit various types of volumetric, automated fraud, like card testing, scraping, SMS toll fraud, and others. Arkose Bot Manager has been recognized for its innovative approach that stops bots and human fraud farms in their tracks by making the effort-to-attack ratio too costly for fraudsters. And when financially-motivated fraudsters can’t make money, they move on to businesses with weaker controls in place.”
This is the third year in a row that Arkose Labs has been included on the prestigious Technology Fast 500 list.
Overall, 2023 Technology Fast 500 companies achieved revenue growth ranging from 201% to 222,189% over the three-year time frame, with an average growth rate of 1,934% and median growth rate of 497%.
