How Crowdsource works

1

Your challenge is to find a vulnerability in a widely used system

E.g., in a CMS, framework, or library. Just so you know, these can be publicly known vulnerabilities or 0-day vulnerabilities and don't have to be found initially by you.

2

Show us how you did it!

Report the vulnerability to us by submitting a valid proof of concept via the Crowdsource platform. We'll also verify and give feedback on the submission.

3

Sit back, relax and let us implement your exploit

We will review your submission and, if valid, create a module for the Detectify services that are used by our clients to keep their products safe.

4

Get paid continuously

You will receive a fixed payout when your submission goes live. For as long as the module remains live, you're continuously rewarded for each unique hit produced in the Detectify customer base. Pretty sweet, right?

0-day bonus

Submitting a valid 0-day will reward you with an upfront bonus, along with our regular payouts for accepted modules. Detectify handles 0-days with transparency to responsibly work with vendors, researchers, and customers with the disclosure.
