Bugcrowd Solutions for the Public Sector
Platform Key Points of Value
Solutions for every security maturity stage
We offer solutions ranging from autonomous code and API testing, to pentesting, to continuous red teaming, meeting you exactly where you are in your security journey. All solutions are enhanced by built-in attack surface discovery and management, providing comprehensive visibility and assessment to strengthen your defenses
Multi-layered testing for continuous resilience
The agile Bugcrowd Platform allows customers to combine different services in any combination for hardening critical assets. For example, you may adopt a VDP for low-risk assets, and a combination of periodic pentesting and continuous bug bounty for business-critical ones - with unified management, reporting, and user experience across the board.
Finds vulnerabilities in traditional testing鈥檚 blind spot
Relying on reactive, traditional testing alone won鈥檛 help you avoid ingenious attacks 鈥� instead, you need to proactively think like adversaries and remediate accordingly. Bugcrowd makes it possible by enabling offensive testing across the attack surface, starting with code security and extending to attack simulation across people, processes, and technology.
Trusted track record in Public Sector
We have a strong track record working with Government entities 鈥� including CISA, US DoD, US Justice, and multiple state agencies 鈥� and treat every customer like an equal partner in a long-term, strategic relationship.
Core Offering
Autonomous Code and API Testing:
Through our acquisition of Mayhem Security, Bugcrowd now offers noise-free autonomous offensive testing, as augmentation for traditional AppSec tools, for finding novel and known defects in code and APIs during development.
Human-Led Offensive Testing as a Service:
The Bugcrowd Platform coordinates the end-to-end vulnerability discovery, management, and remediation process. Our Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS), Red Team as Service (RTaaS), and fully managed Vulnerability Disclosure and Bug Bounty capabilities help satisfy numerous public sector compliance requirements.
- Pen Testing as a Service (PTaaS): Customized, pay-for-time testing of virtually any asset type (including hardware/firmware) by elite human pentesters for compliance (e.g., 23 NYCRR 500, CJIS, CPPA, etc) and risk reduction
- Red Teams as a Service (RTaaS): Persistent, real-world attack simulations that validate how threats unfold across people, processes, and technology, with a pricing model that fits your size, goals, and budget
- Vulnerability Disclosure: Meets numerous compliance requirements (eg, CISA BOD 20-01) for open vulnerability discovery and reporting via a "neighborhood watch” approach
- Bug Bounty: Continuous, incentivized discovery and prioritization of hidden (often critical) vulnerabilities by trusted security researchers curated for their skill set and track record
AI Systems Testing:
Bugcrowd brings the ingenuity of the crowd to AI “red teaming”, helping government agencies and universities pressure-test their large language models (LLMs) and AI-driven systems. Our offerings are designed to identify and mitigate unintended safety, security, and bias concerns, ensuring AI systems meet your ethical and security standards.
Bug Bashes:
Bug Bashes are 1-3 day live hacking events that bring your team together with the world's top hackers in a fun, interactive, and educational environment to accelerate the discovery of critical vulnerabilities in the assets and scope of your choosing.
