The solution helps users to manage their entire IP range, but it's unreliable and very expensive to maintain
Only the administrator was using the product. He used it to read reports as part of our compliance programs. It wasn't heavily used by a lot of users. The tool comes in at a large scale, and we tried to scale it down. The scaling did not apply to us. It was neither difficult nor easy. I rate the scalability a five out of ten. We had some challenges while scaling it down. It could do 10,000 devices, and we wanted to use it for ten devices. The process was difficult and expensive. We did not need the product anymore.

Offers bug bounty opportunities and helps to earn extra money
In college, I started using HackerOne and taught my 10-20 juniors how to use it. I'm sure they might still be using it in their lives right now. The biggest challenge integrating HackerOne into my existing security protocols has been on my side, not the tool's. I need to take the time out to use and practice with it, but currently, I'm unable to give it the time I used to. There's no issue from the application side. To use the tool, you first need a basic knowledge of cybersecurity terms, like exploits and vulnerabilities, and how to identify them. Once familiar with these basics, you can learn more from the resources and platforms HackerOne provides. They offer tickets and guides to help you understand the methods for finding and exploiting vulnerabilities. Before deciding to use the solution in your organization, consider the purpose. HackerOne is a multi-platform. If the goal is to spread awareness about cybersecurity or to make the security team more active in learning about hacking methods and new vulnerabilities, then it can be very effective. It allows the team to earn extra money while learning and exploring new vulnerabilities in the market, potentially even finding zero-day vulnerabilities. I would rate HackerOne around an eight to nine out of ten. The application is simple to use, offering numerous opportunities and scopes for exploration. It covers many platforms, including web, Android, and iOS applications. However, the high traffic can sometimes be a drawback. If they manage this issue by implementing features like consolidation pricing for duplicate vulnerabilities, it could easily be a ten out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We could manage our entire IP range with the solution."
"It's become the pinnacle point for anything that enters the network or anything that's passing through to production to first be affected by IP360, hardened, and up to standard. For our integrity management, one was deployed in the bank about two years ago and that's still going to expand the usage and the product itself. That will go hand in hand with training and expanding the product as for where it's deployed."
"Tripwire IP360 is a very stable solution."
"The most valuable feature of HackerOne is its variety of programs. These programs provide depth into various areas, such as mobile, API, and websites."
"It helps me to get new sales, profits, and other benefits."
"Apart from getting all the bug bounty opportunities, we also get the chance to practice in a safe environment, like a demo setup. These features are great for beginners who want to explore bug bounties in the future."
 

Cons

"We need to dedicate time and resources to keep it running."
"The reporting functions can use improvement. There is room for growth because reporting functions differ a lot depending on what you're going to output. It depends on whether it's for technical or senior management and how it's interpreted. There could be growth within the reporting functionality side."
"I am not very impressed by the technical support."
"The ability to view the conversation between the triagers and the programs will be really good."
"Response time can be improved. The HackerOne Trust team can be slow to respond sometimes. They're not using AI, which could help reduce the number of duplicate reports."
"One issue I've experienced is traffic. Many people try to participate when an opportunity with a bounty of around 1,000-15,000 dollars comes up. In this case, the first person to report the vulnerability gets the bounty. If a second person reports the same vulnerability, they are marked as duplicated instead of receiving some recognition. The second person also invested time finding the issue, so I think this can be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I believe the price compares well within the market."
"The product was expensive for us."
"The tool is open-source and free for bug bounty hunters."
"The solution is free."
