GuidePoint Security names Bugcrowd as Emerging Cyber Vendor Program partner

GuidePoint Security announced today that Bugcrowd has joined its Emerging Cyber Vendor Program.

With this partnership, Bugcrowd will be able to leverage GuidePoint’s extensive federal expertise across sales and marketing, operations, engineering and procurement to expand their federal footprint.

"Secure code development is integral to protecting against cyber threats, promoting national security and satisfying compliance mandates,” said Jim Quarantillo, Federal Partner, GuidePoint Security. “Bugcrowd provides a crowdsourced penetration testing platform that allows customers to go beyond code scanning and QA testing of applications. The Bugcrowd vetted pen testers, pen test management platform and mature VDP (Vulnerability Disclosure Program) platform provides customers a real view of their vulnerability and risk at a fraction of the cost and management of standard pen testing contracts.”

The Bugcrowd Platform connects organizations with skilled, trusted hackers and expert penetration testers on demand for multiple offensive security use cases. Offering vulnerability disclosure services, bug bounties and more, Bugcrowd’s network of hackers helps organizations uncover hidden weaknesses and swiftly adapt to evolving threats.

Selected by the Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Office (CDAO) to power its continuous bug bounty program for the Department of Defense, Bugcrowd is well-versed in securing government data, applications and critical infrastructure while meeting compliance requirements,” said Kent Wilson, VP of Global Public Sectors at Bugcrowd. “We’re excited to partner with GuidePoint Security and employ their decades of federal experience as we further our services for the public sector.”
