Your Best Ally for VDP and Beyond

The U.S. Department of Defense has resolved more than 25,000 valid vulnerabilities through the HackerOne Attack Resistance Platform.

 

If you're not seeing that kind of success at your agency, it's time to look at new options for your CISA BOD-mandated VDP and more.

Questions about VDP? Consult our security experts.

According to the CISA binding operational directive 20-01, federal agencies must implement a VDP. The directive has many federal agencies asking questions such as:

  • How do we set up a system for quickly triaging vulnerabilities that both satisfies compliance requirements and doesn’t overwhelm our team?
  • How do we manage inbound vulnerability reports and communicate with external researchers safely and efficiently?
  • How do we satisfy all CISA requirements before the deadline without compromising our holistic security posture?

Hack the Pentagon

Hack the Pentagon

For 7-plus years, HackerOne has partnered with the U.S. Department of Defense to defend their assets, starting with Hack the Pentagon‘s vulnerability disclosure program. Kris Johnson, Director of the VDP at the DoD, says “researchers are telling us what’s wrong with our systems. We have a ton of success stories.” That success has encouraged the DoD to proactively embrace crowdsourced security, saving $64 million and achieving nearly 800% ROI.

Hack U.S.

In partnership with Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office (CDAO), Directorate for Digital Services (DDS), and DoD Cyber Crime Center (DC3), HackerOne launched the Hack U.S. bug bounty challenge, allowing ethical hackers from around the globe to earn monetary rewards for reporting of critical and high vulnerabilities from within the DoD VDP published scope. The bug bounty program attracted 267 hackers and surfaced 349 actionable vulnerabilities in just 7 days.

Professional hackers are a critical extension of our team. This bounty challenge shows the extra value we can earn by leveraging their subject matter expertise in an incentivized manner.
