“It was a true pleasure working with Avi. As a colleague, he was a tremendous help when onboarding, showing me the ropes both organizationally and professionally. He is extremely easy to talk to, a great listener, and understands how organizations work. Unlike many others, he puts his ego aside and does what the company needs, without concern for credit. Professionally, he is a marketing whiz, having created the messaging for AlgoSec’s products and having written compelling content for the company.”

What is the cost of a software bug? For Knight Capital, an American global financial services firm, it was at least $440 million due to a glitch in their legacy software. The loss was caused by a failure in an update meant to accommodate a new New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) system that went live on August 1. $440 million was lost in only 30 minutes, before it was manually shut down.

What is the cost of a software bug? For Knight Capital, an American global financial services firm, it was at least $440 million due to a glitch in their legacy software. The loss was caused by a failure in an update meant to accommodate a new New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) system that went live on August 1. $440 million was lost in only 30 minutes, before it was manually shut down. That is not counting the additional damage caused to their reputation and stock valuation. This is not insignificant – Knight Capital is not some fly-by-night startup in a garage but rather the largest trader in American equities.
Catching the issues early, during development and preparation for integration with the new NYSE system, which can only be done by adequate and comprehensive developer testing, and not a separate QA team that doesn’t examine the code until the developer is done, would have prevented this loss. -
