The Next Generation of Pen Testing – Crowdsourced Security

Traditional penetration testing has become less effective due to the rapid pace of application development and increasing data breaches. The traditional approach is often performed by a single person or team using standardized methodology, which may not be enough to find serious vulnerabilities given the vast number of adversaries. Additionally, traditional pen tests are periodic "point-in-time" exercises that leave new code untested for months, lack true insight into actual risk, and are not cost-effective. To address these pain points, crowdsourced security methods such as bug bounty programs have emerged, which leverage human intelligence at scale to deliver rapid discovery of high-risk vulnerabilities and provide constant coverage necessary in today's modern software development life cycle.
