TORONTO, December 30, 2022 – Cybeats Technologies Corp. (“Cybeats'' or the “Company”)(CSE: CYBT) is pleased to report a two-year agreement with a global leader in digital media quality and advertising technology, for a software license to Cybeats’ SBOM Studio cybersecurity platform. 

“This engagement further validates the broad and industry agnostic value that Cybeats offers, and in this case, supporting the security efforts of an Ad Tech leader who is combating the costly impacts of Ad fraud. SBOM Studio provides valuable cost-saving and operational efficiencies to cybersecurity teams, benefiting a diverse range of organizations from multiple sectors,” said Yoav Raiter, CEO, Cybeats. “With this technology leader having chosen Cybeats, they’ve taken a proactive approach in managing their software supply chain risks, in order to protect their platforms, customers and brands.”

The client is a Nasdaq listed technology firm, and a leader in a rapidly evolving digital ad landscape. The client purchased a multi-year Software as a Service (SaaS) license to Cybeats SBOM Studio, for which the commercial engagement commenced in early December, involving approximately $180,000 CAD in revenue. Ensuring that ads are viewable by real people, in safe and suitable environments, their mission is to be the global benchmark for trust and transparency in digital media quality for the world’s leading brands, publishers, and platforms. 

Ad fraud is one of the largest forms of online cyber-crime, projected to cost advertisers more than $100 billion by 2023^[1]. It’s estimated that between 40% and 70% of all ad views are fraudulent, and on some sites nearly 9 out of 10 visitors are fraudulent^[2]. Ad fraud is deliberate attempts to publish ads that have no potential to be viewed by a human user. Attackers set up a page of ads and have bots visit to generate fake traffic. Since it looks like the ads were viewed, the advertising network still gets paid.^[3]
