What we do at Detectify
The fear of cyber threats should never stand in the way of digital greatness. That is why we are changing the fundamentals of how cyber security works. We collaborate with ethical hackers to build a powerful platform that automates and scales crowdsourced vulnerability research.
For us, security is not just about protecting what you have but more so a tool to achieve what you want. At Detectify, your opinion and ideas matter. You belong to a dedicated, driven and forever curious team that recognises the power of knowledge sharing and challenging the status quo.
We value diversity of minds, different backgrounds, and perspectives. We are all here because we want to make a positive impact in the world. If you are collaborative and passionate about what you do, then you too could be a Detectifyer.
The Vulnerability Assessment Research Team (VAR)
This team is currently composed of security researchers with a focus to make sure that the members of Detectify Crowdsource - our network of white-hat hackers - are engaged and enjoying the best possible experience when collaborating with Detectify.
When our hackers submits a vulnerability through our Crowdsource platform, our team builds a module for it and adds it into the Detectify service. By reporting the vulnerability to us, it becomes a security test which is then made available to all our customers – this is how Detectify combines automation and crowdsourcing.
These tests come in various, unique flavors, and are driven by crowdsourced security knowledge. We in the VAR team are responsible for validating, configuring and executing such tests on our customer’s web applications.
We aim for the best possible scanning performance with comprehensive coverage of possible security issues optimizing for flow, fast feedback and quality. We follow lean and DevOps concepts, aiming to be innovative, helpful, and have a strong sense of ownership for all the things we build.
