Benefits of community-driven threat detection
We are excited to share why we think this approach will shift the entire business model that the existing industry and approaches have been built around for the last few decades.
Accelerated Compromise Discovery: Community-driven threat detection can lead to faster discovery and remediation of security compromise. A larger pool of security researchers actively searching for compromise can uncover issues more quickly than traditional internal testing teams.
Cost-Effectiveness: Community-driven threat detection can be more cost-effective than maintaining a full-time internal security operations center team. Organisations only pay for valid compromises that are reported, rather than incurring the ongoing overhead of maintaining an in-house team.
Increased Detection Scope: Community-driven threat detection allows organisations to extend their security detection beyond their internal capabilities. Researchers from diverse backgrounds and regions can bring unique perspectives and skills, resulting in a broader scope of security detection.
Complementing Internal soc capability: Community-driven threat detection complements internal security efforts by offering an additional layer of scrutiny from an external perspectives, enhancing the overall security posture of the organisation.
Crowdsourced Creativity: Community-driven threat detection programs encourage creative thinking and innovation in identifying security compromise. Researchers may discover novel attack vectors or unconventional security issues that internal teams might not have considered.
Flexible Engagement Model: Organisations can choose the scope and duration of their Community-driven threat detection program to align with their needs. This flexibility allows organisations to focus on specific projects or products or run ongoing programs for continuous monitoring.
Learning Opportunity: Community-driven threat detection programs can serve as a learning opportunity for internal security teams. By analysing the compromises reported and the techniques used to find them, organisations can enhance their internal security practices.
Rewarding good security: Community-driven threat detection programs, like Bug Bounty programs enable organisations the opportunity to reduce the costs incurred for detecting and responding to compromises through increasing preventative security controls.
You now can focus on your organisation’s goals and have the air-cover of our group of security experts who are laser focussed on the threats that are relevant to you.
