NEW YORK, Oct 30, 2026 — Web3 security firm CertiK today announced a partnership with Arbitrum and Robinhood Crypto through the Arbitrum Mentorship Program, an initiative that helps early-stage Web3 teams with product development, fundraising and market entry.
Under the arrangement, CertiK will provide participating teams with security tools, professional services and mentoring. Teams receive access to CertiK's AI Auditor and its Skynet platform, discounted security assessments, and guidance from CertiK on security, technology, business development and go-to-market strategy. The aim is to bring security work into a project's early stages rather than leaving it until just before launch.
Teams that win the program are eligible for further support: extended access to AI Auditor, priority scheduling for audits ahead of their launch, regulatory guidance for their target markets, and promotional opportunities.
Ronghui Gu, Co-Founder and CEO of CertiK, said Arbitrum and Robinhood Crypto are creating opportunities for early-stage teams to grow while keeping their future users in mind. He added that the program is "helping founders address security early and build a stronger foundation for long-term growth."
CertiK describes itself as the largest Web3 security services provider. The company says it has protected more than $600 billion in digital assets since 2017, serving clients in more than 150 countries and regions, and that it operates under SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 standards.
