YesWeHack is a platform enabling the connection of companies and ethical Hacker (also known as white hackers). It was created in 2013 by Guillaume Vassault-Houlière, Manuel Dorne and Romain Lecoeuvre.[1] It is part of the "Bug bounty program" initiative, or bug hunt, allowing organizations to pay IT Specialist who detect security vulnerabilities on their systems (paid from 50 to 20,000 euros).[2]
The company claims to have a community of around 20,000 hackers,[3] ranked according to their performance. Most of these hackers are not employed by YesWeHack but are mostly freelancers.
In 2019, the company raised 4 million euros in order to continue its international growth.[4] It is currently the market leader in Europe;[5][6][7] its market competitors are, among others, Bugcrowd, Synack, Intigriti or Zerocopter.[8][9] Its customers include Orange S.A., BlaBlaCar, CNP Assurances, Qwant, Dailymotion, the Ministry of Armed Forces (France) ,[10] Tesla, Inc., BMW and the French region 'Île de France'. Recently, the platform was also chosen to test France's Covid-19 app.[11][12] On a global level, the American company HackerOne remains ahead, with a community of more than 600,000 hackers.[13]
