, and reduce or eliminate the value of our platform. Any efforts to re-engineer all or a portion of our platform could result in potentially prolonged periods of reduced usability and accessibility of our platform, which in turn would adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.

On occasion, companies that use open source software have faced claims challenging their use of open source software or compliance with open source license terms. The terms of many open source licenses have not been interpreted by U.S. courts, and there is a risk that these licenses could be construed in ways that could impose unanticipated conditions or restrictions on our ability to commercialize any offerings incorporating such software. Moreover, we cannot guarantee that we have not incorporated open source software in our platform in a manner that is inconsistent with the terms of the applicable license or our current policies and procedures, or that our processes for controlling our use of open source software in our platform are or will be effective.

Litigation could be costly for us to defend, result in our paying damages or entering into unfavorable licenses, have a negative effect on our operating results and financial condition, or cause delays by requiring us to devote additional research and development resources to modify our platform, products, and services.

We, like other financial technology companies, and certain of our third-party service providers, are routinely subject to cybersecurity threats and our technologies, systems, and networks have been and might in the future be subject to attempted cybersecurity attacks. Such issues are increasing in frequency and evolving in nature, including through employee and contractor theft or misuse, social engineering/phishing, denial-of-service attacks, malware (including ransomware), and human or technological error, and including from
