Cybersecurity runs on research

Today, there’s a $3 trillion cybersecurity industry, built on the promise of security. Vendors, service providers, compliance experts, and policymakers all sell solutions, but none of it would exist without Researchers like you.
Take control
Researchers

You’re the one who finds the flaws - the vulnerabilities hidden inside flagship products that billion-dollar companies market as bulletproof.

Yet while they protect their brands, attackers move faster, launching new and more devastating exploits every day.
Researchers make their findings public but face stiff terms from companies that fear damage to their brand. This pushes vulnerability research to the black market, where attackers can easily acquire exploits and scale their operations.

Everyone - the vendors, corporations, and criminals - profit on their own terms.

Except you. We offer a new way forward.
