Cybersecurity & Bug Bounty: Attack is the best form of defence

By Guillaume Vassault-Houlière | CEO of YesWeHack

Through our European platform YesWeHack.com, Bug Bounty is gaining respectability in France and Europe.

Bug Bounty is an innovative and operational practice from the United States that rewards security experts who find security flaws in IT systems.

Within a complex geopolitical context, Europe and France can compete in defending a European model of digital sovereignty.

In the light of new threats and given reports of organizations that are victims of piracy and irreversible damage, some innovative cyber security policies and approaches need to be adopted.

Cybersecurity is a powerful ally for leading digital transformation.

YesWeHack : the first European platform for Bug Bounty

Computer security is a strategic challenge for all organizations and companies. Carrying out an inventory is essential to have an overall view of the situation. Security audits should be performed regularly and the costs are high.

Bug Bounty Programs allow companies to outsource seeking vulnerabilities by collecting a significant number of security breakdowns that will be reproduced and analyzed. This does improve the code, preventing from new risks.

With a good Bug Bounty program, a company can continuously check the security of its site or its applications. Hundreds of experts will test sites, and be rewarded (financial or else).

Submit your site to a Bug Bounty program is affordable. You can communicate about its security, also be proactive and reactive in case of vulnerabilities.

By participating in Bug Bounties, security researchers apply their knowledge legally, are paid, enrich their network and enhance their expertise YesWeHack launches the first European platform for Bug Bounty : YesWeHack.com.

YesWeHack.com is an easy way to secure your platforms.

To create their own Bug Bounty program, the startups, the large enterprise groups or the project holders have to register on our platform. They have to define a scope, a reward and whether it will be private or public.

Security researchers that are registered on YesWeHack.com then take note of the bug bounty program’s details.

When one of the hunters find a bug inside the scope, it shall have to be validated by the bug bounty initiator. Once recognized, the hunter will instantly be rewarded and credited skill points that would highlight him on Yeswehack.
