At HackerOne, we believe the best security decisions are made with clear, actionable insights. That’s why we’ve created tools that help you understand your security performance and take the right actions.

Features like BenchmarksRecommendations, and now Top Weaknesses let you easily compare security efforts to others, see what’s working, and focus on what matters. These features simplify decision-making so that you can strengthen your security without the guesswork.

Benchmarks: See How You Measure Up

Understanding where your security efforts stand is often a challenge. Our Benchmarks feature helps by providing insights into how your security practices compare with other companies. Benchmarks help you see if you're on track or need to adjust your approach without digging through reports or data.

Custom Benchmarks: Relevant Comparisons for Your Business

Not all companies are the same. With Custom Benchmarks, you can compare your security to companies of similar size, industry, or other relevant factors. This way, the data you’re looking at is always relevant to your business, helping you make smarter decisions about where to invest.

Top Weaknesses: Focus on What Matters

Our new Top Weaknesses Chart takes a deep dive into your security risks, showing you the most common vulnerabilities that need attention. By tracking vulnerability prevalence over time, you can see what issues are recurring and prioritize fixes to stay ahead of threats. With this chart, you’ll have a clear roadmap to focus on the vulnerabilities that pose the most risk to your organization

You can now:

  • Identify your most frequently submitted CWE weaknesses
  • Uncover recurring security gaps in your security posture
  • Compare top weaknesses against peers to see where you stand
  • Track Year-over-Year trends and measure your progress. 

Recommendations: Know What to Fix First

Once you’ve identified what’s happening in your security program, the next step is knowing what to do about it. Recommendations turn your security data into clear, prioritized actions—so you’re not just tracking progress, you’re driving it.

Whether it’s improving time to triage, reducing report reopen rates, or strengthening communication with researchers, Recommendations help you focus your efforts where they’ll have the most significant impact.

Turn Insight into Impact

Security isn’t just about finding problems. It’s about fixing the right issues at the right time. These new features give you a clear view of your security posture to make better decisions and stay one step ahead of potential threats.
