Innovative protection platform recognized in prestigious 9th annual global awards program

SAN MATEO, Calif., Oct. 21, 2025 – Arkose Labs, the leading fraud prevention, device ID and bot management company, today announced that it has been selected as winner of the "Email Security Innovation Award" in the 9th annual CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards program. Conducted by CyberSecurity Breakthrough, an independent market intelligence organization, the annual program recognizes the most innovative companies, products and technologies driving progress in the global information security industry.

Arkose Labs has been recognized for its breakthrough solution that detects fraudulent email addresses the moment they are introduced, at registration and during guest checkout flows. With Arkose Email Intelligence, bad actors using throwaway or other high-risk email addresses to create synthetic online accounts and deploy account takeover (ATO) attacks are stopped before they can establish a foothold.

"This award is a testament to our commitment to innovation in the fight against cybercrime. Arkose Email Intelligence enables precise detection of fraudulent email addresses and stopping bad actors before they infiltrate platforms," said Kevin Gosschalk, Founder and CEO of Arkose Labs. "This recognition reinforces our mission to democratize email intelligence and harness AI in the products across our platform to deliver the comprehensive security that businesses and their consumers expect today."

Arkose Email Intelligence uses integrated risk detection to correlate email risk with web session data, ensuring accurate threat assessment while maintaining user privacy. By evaluating a wide range of signals in real time it applies dynamic pressure to stop bots and fraud farms before they infiltrate platforms. This advanced technology works seamlessly on the Arkose Labs' platform and together with Arkose Bot Manager, it analyzes registration attempts through distinct lenses to deliver comprehensive and seamless protection.

"Enterprises can proactively stop fraud at its source by leveraging advanced AI-driven email risk detection combined with actionable insights. This approach provides CISOs with the tools they need to protect their platforms from account registration, log-in to payment transactions, ensuring a seamless and safe user experience from their first interaction," said Shimon Modi, Senior Vice President of Product at Arkose Labs. "We're honored to receive this recognition from CyberSecurity Breakthrough and remain committed to delivering innovative solutions that protect the digital environments our customers create."
