How fully-managed bug bounty and disclosure programs close
visibility gaps across your attack surface
The digital-first economy has spurred a massive proliferation of internetfacing assets. Fueled by emerging technologies like cloud-native workloads
and microservices, along with organizational changes from mergers and
acquisitions, businesses of all industries have increased their digital landscape
to meet the demands of customers worldwide. As the saying goes, every business
is now a software business.
As of December 2022,
HackerOne’s community
has helped resolve
over 76,000 high and
critical-severity
vulnerabilities.
- A bug bounty is a structured program for ethical hackers and
security researchers to safely find and report vulnerabilities to
your organization in exchange for a monetary reward.
-
The core purpose, and structure, of a Vulnerability Disclosure
Program (VDP) is the same as a bug bounty — to invite the
hacker community to test your assets and find vulnerabilities.
In fact, “VDP” is used as an umbrella term to describe any
formalized program that allows ethical hackers to report
security vulnerabilities in computer software or hardware.
Even bug bounties are considered a category of VDP with
monetary incentives.
- With organizations continuing to invest in their digital landscape, security leadership needs to take a comprehensive view
of their attack surface vulnerability and whether they are equipped to take action.
- HackerOne Bounty and Response are key components of our Attack Resistance Management platform, which integrates
attack surface management and proactive security testing to help organizations increase risk awareness, security efficacy,
and operational efficiencies. Working together, our solutions create a unified asset inventory that can be secured through
targeted and crowdsourced testing to reduce your organization’s cybersecurity risk.
