Detectify is a security platform that automates application security testing through crowdsourced vulnerability research from ethical hackers. The company was founded by a group of security researchers who sought to democratize security knowledge that was previously confined to small groups of experts. The platform provides automated vulnerability scanning and testing across customers' exposed assets, utilizing payload-based and production-safe testing methodologies. Detectify's approach centers on scaling vulnerability research by collecting and automating security testing techniques from elite ethical hackers, then deploying these tests across customer environments. The company offers application security testing capabilities that provide evolving coverage as new vulnerabilities and attack techniques are discovered by their community of security researchers. This crowdsourced model allows the platform to continuously update its testing capabilities based on real-world security research and emerging threats. Detectify serves over 10,000 users who use the platform to manage their attack surfaces. Customers include companies like ABC Fitness, Storytel, Trustly, New Relic, Grammarly, and Discogs. The company operates from offices in Stockholm, Sweden (headquarters) and Boston, USA, and has received backing from investors including Insight Partners and Balderton.
