Our take
As more and more commercial activities go online, companies are increasingly exposed to cybersecurity threats. This requires organizations to get serious about their digital security infrastructure. As a result, the business of cybersecurity auditing has boomed.
Trail of bits is one such auditing firm with a signature method: combining its top-quality research in the cybersecurity field with the approaches of a real-world hacker. Distinguishing itself even further, the company has engaged in a new strategy fit for a new market - blockchain. The cybersecurity firm is now one of the world’s most prominent blockchain code auditors.
It's an exploding niche for which Trail of Bits has also been able to create an entirely new business line. While also auditing on behalf of blockchain software businesses, it is also expanding a service of engaging the government & large financial institutions for work on evaluating the risks of blockchain software.
Trail of Bits is well positioned as a result. Even if, as some commentators predict, the bottom falls out of the blockchain industry, the firm has used the momentum to reinforce its position as a thought leader on cutting-edge technology, establishing important partnerships that will last regardless.
