Greater New York City Area Full Time

White Ops is a cybersecurity company that protects businesses from automated threats: actions like ad fraud, credential stuffing, and fake engagement conducted by malicious bots. Even when a bot perfectly impersonates human behaviors, White Ops is able to detect it with precision and confidence. This ability, plus our unique vantage point on the "black hat" mindset, has made us the platform of choice for some of the largest and most forward-thinking brands on the web like The Trade Desk, Oath, and Adobe.
