Responsible Disclosure

Although our service focuses on finding vulnerabilities across your attack surface, we are not naive enough to think that our own applications are 100% flawless. We take security issues seriously and respond swiftly to fix verifiable security issues.

If you are the first to report a verifiable security issue, we'll thank you with a place at our hall of fame page.

We encourage anyone to report security issues to disclosure@detectify.com.

Who can participate in the program?

Anyone who doesn't work for Detectify or partners of Detectify who reports a unique security issue in scope and does not disclose it to a third party before we have patched and updated may be upon their approval added to the Detectify Hall of Fame.

How should reports be formatted?

We would like you to format your reports like this:

Name: %name   
Bug type: %bugtype   
Domain: %domain   
Severity: %severity   
URL: %url   
PoC: %poc                                                                                

Which domains are in scope?

In scope:

  • *.detectify.com

  • labs.detectify.com
  • career.detectify.com
  • support.detectify.com
  • changes.detectify.com
  • stories.detectify.com

However, if you can prove that a bug under these domains has a significant impact (for example, fetching content on detectify.com from blog.detectify.com), a bug on these domains may qualify anyway.

What bugs are eligible?

Cross-site Scripting

What bugs are NOT eligible?

Disruptive bugs or bugs with no/low impact or likelihood such as:
