Bug Bounty Switzerland launches a protective shield to strengthen cyber resilience

Bug Bounty Switzerland, the Swiss pioneer in ethical hacking, presents the Cyber Resilience Shield, a powerful, scalable and easily accessible shield that strengthens companies' resilience and thus improves their cyber security. With a transparent pricing model and no need for additional security resources, the Cyber Resilience Shield offers comprehensive protection at the touch of a button. This is tailored to the specific needs of each organization.

As a pioneer in the industry, Bug Bounty Switzerland has perfected the use of ethical hacking over the years and learned how to run bug bounty programs most effectively. Based on this know-how, the company has now developed an innovative model. This optimizes ethical hacking using data from previous and ongoing bug bounty programs and with the help of modern AI technology.

Continuous tests and cyber resilience score

The Cyber Resilience Shield protects companies from cyber attacks by identifying critical points of attack and closing them before they are exploited. The system ensures continuous, targeted security tests that focus on the vulnerabilities with the greatest threat potential. By quickly prioritizing identified vulnerabilities and providing clear recommendations for action, security gaps can be addressed efficiently - even outside the affected organization. The Cyber Resilience Shield mobilizes all parties required to quickly rectify the identified vulnerabilities.

An additional added value of the Cyber Resilience Shield is the assessment of an organization's cyber resilience using the Cyber Resilience Score. This combines various dimensions of preventive cyber security in one value. This gives companies a clear overview of their own capabilities in dealing with vulnerabilities compared to other players in the respective industry. The Cyber Resilience Score allows them to track their progress and identify the areas where the greatest need for action exists. The Cyber Resilience Shield not only provides companies with data, but also detailed reports. These provide management, executives and board members in particular with important insights to better understand their company's cyber risks and improve its resilience.

Four-stage approach to increasing cyber resilience

The methodology underlying the Cyber Resilience Shield is based on a four-stage approach of "Continuous Threat Exposure Management", which has been adapted to ethical hacking.

1. Identification and monitoring of the company's entire attack surfaceincluding all publicly accessible assets such as brands, domains, IP addresses and cloud resources. Using the extensive data that Bug Bounty Switzerland has collected in its business activities over the years, the Cyber Resilience Shield creates a customized model to identify risk areas.
2. Activation of an adaptive protective mechanismwhich specifically addresses the identified threats and risks. To do this, the Cyber Resilience Shield smartly orchestrates the use of ethical hackers on an ongoing basis with new findings from the available data. In this way, it ensures precise and targeted protection.
3. Prioritization of the weak points to be remedied based on their actual threat potential, with non-technical teams also being involved in the process. If necessary, Bug Bounty Switzerland also works directly with the third parties and authorities involved to rectify the identified vulnerabilities.
4. Transparent reporting and benchmarking with the Cyber Resilience Score as a central element. The Cyber Resilience Score enables organizations to directly compare their cyber security measures with best practices and industry results. This and the other reports allow them to continuously adapt their security investments to current circumstances.

Fast entry into continuous improvement of cyber security

Bug Bounty Switzerland's protective shield provides organizations with a scalable solution at the touch of a button and at a fixed annual price. It is geared towards the constantly changing threats of the digital world and uses AI to strengthen their cyber resilience in a smart way. The Cyber Resilience Shield enables a quick start to continuously improving cyber security while providing clear, actionable insights for management.

"Without the cooperation of ethical hackers, it is impossible for companies to find all vulnerabilities in their systems exposed on the Internet. And yet many companies still refrain from using bug bounty programs. Be it because they shy away from cooperating with ethical hackers, because of the complexity of the operation, the additional work or the difficult-to-plan costs," explains Sandro Nafzger. He is CEO and co-founder of Bug Bounty Switzerland. "With the Cyber Resilience Shield, we are addressing these fears and making it easier for organizations to start using ethical hacking with a perfectly orchestrated solution at the touch of a button."
