Facebook lands bug hunters with Monoidics buy
Facebook is acquiring the assets of Monoidics, a U.K.-based software startup, including its bug-hunting technical team.
The two companies announced the acquisition, which should boost Facebook's mobile efforts, in separate blog posts on Thursday.
The technical team at Monoidics, a four-year-old company that builds code verification and analysis software, will join Facebook's London offices once the deal closes, according to Monoidics' blog. Since this isn't a full company acquisition, the technical team will be the only Monoidics employees to join Facebook. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
