“As the world’s first ephemeral messaging platform, our customers unequivocally expect privacy and security from our products. Maintaining these principles to a high bar is vital for our company.”

“HackerOne programs are a fundamental part of our cybersecurity strategy.”

"HackerOne is a well-known platform across the information security community which aggregates the most successful bug bounty programs to date."

"We obviously can’t hire enough engineers to protect against every possible vulnerability, but we can use our bug bounty program to add on-demand expertise where we need it and continuous coverage nearly everywhere else."

"There is a lot of education left to do, both to producers and customers of security-critical code. We hope bug bounty programs becomes an industry-standard, for the sake of security and stability of the entire industry."

“By enabling all teams that work in cybersecurity to better understand the root causes of real-life examples, we can avoid more issues earlier in the software development lifecycle. The HackerOne workshop helps to educate 100s of Sage employees and strengthen our capabilities and how we respond to situations.”

"We can’t strive to be a great security team without you! You are part of my team!"

"We tried pen testing before and found it very expensive and practically useless. The first week we launched HackerOne they found several high priority bugs. Huge value at the fraction of the costs."

“Since the HackerOne Triage team is wellcalibrated on our scope, they offload some of the work from our security team, such as report triage, identifying duplicated reports, and scope mismatch. In other words, the HackerOne Triage team acts as an extension to our security team.”

"We need to move to a world. Where all companies providing internet services and devices adhere to a vulnerability disclosure policy."

"Being able to have issues retested during the same engagement is a game-changer. That’s something that hasn’t been available in the past because traditionally, you didn’t receive the results of a penetration test until after the engagement was over."

"We know that state-sponsored actors and black-hat hackers want to challenge and exploit our networks. We know that. What we didn't fully appreciate before this pilot was how many white-hat hackers there are who want to make a difference, who want to help keep our people and our nation safer."

"We know for a fact that sending a wide variety of hackers into a wide environment will result in something meaningful. It is a fact. We cannot hire every amazing hacker and have them come work for us, but we can do these crowdsourced bug bounties. I’m done with being …

"The ideal end-state is that bug bounties become a regular, common tool in securing all IT assets across the Department of Defense. We will always have security vulnerabilities. We can approach that reality one of two ways: we can deny it, or we can be proactive, open to it and …

"We’ve received a lot of guidance (on working with hackers) from HackerOne and it's been a great experience."
