Enhance your Cyber Resilience with the Power of Ethical Hackers
With 80% of breaches caused by unpatched flaws, proactive testing is your best defense — let elite ethical hackers strengthen your cyber resilience by finding weaknesses before attackers do.
What is V-Formation and how does it support our security program?
V-Formation is a security platform which allows you to have multiple services in one place: run a vulnerability disclosure or bug bounty program and use AI-powered tools to regularly scan your assets for vulnerabilities.
What is a Vulnerability Disclosure Program (VDP)?
A Vulnerability Disclosure Program (VDP) is a structured process that allows external security researchers or users to report vulnerabilities they discover in your systems. It defines clear rules, communication channels and expectations so issues can be shared safely, reviewed efficiently and resolved without unwanted exposure or legal ambiguity. Many industries and government bodies now encourage or mandate VDPs as part of modern security best-practice, recognising them as an essential component of transparency and coordinated vulnerability management.
What is a Bug Bounty Program?
A bug bounty program is a structured initiative where organisations invite vetted security researchers to discover and responsibly report vulnerabilities in exchange for monetary rewards. Unlike a VDP, which focuses on safe reporting, a bug bounty adds financial incentives that encourage deeper testing and higher-impact findings. Program rules define scope, testing boundaries, reward tiers and communication steps to ensure a safe and controlled process. Many sectors now adopt or recommend bug bounty programs as part of strengthening continuous security and meeting modern assurance expectations.
What is RavenEye, the AI-powered vulnerability scanner?
RavenEye is the AI-powered scanner available as part of V-Formation, designed to continuously analyse your assets for security weaknesses. It automates discovery, prioritises potential issues and delivers clear insights to help you address risks early and regularly. You can use it alongside your VDP or bug bounty program to maintain ongoing visibility into your attack surface.
General
How quickly can I sign up and start using V-Formation services?
Getting started is straightforward. After creating your account and defining the scope of your assets, you can launch a vulnerability disclosure or bug bounty program without delay. Platform setup, configuration and access to AI-powered scanning tools can be completed quickly, allowing you to begin receiving reports and insights as soon as your program goes live.
Can we start small and scale up later?
Definitely! You can begin with a limited scope or a basic vulnerability disclosure program and expand as your needs grow. V-Formation is designed to let you add more assets, introduce bounty rewards, invite additional researchers or move to more advanced testing models at your own pace. This approach lets you build confidence gradually while keeping full flexibility to scale your security efforts over time.
What if we only need one or a few of your services? How does licensing work?
You can choose only the services you need. Whether it’s running a VDP, launching a bug bounty program or using the AI-powered scanning tools, each component can be licensed individually. This lets you start with the specific capabilities that fit your current priorities and add more later without committing to a full platform bundle.
Does V-Formation integrate with our existing tools?
Yes. The platform supports integrations that help streamline your internal workflow, including direct Atlassian Jira® integration for creating and tracking remediation tickets. This allows validated reports to flow seamlessly into your existing processes without additional manual steps.
