Overview
Inspectiv provides a Bug Bounty as a Service (BaaS) platform for cybersecurity, helping organizations find and manage critical vulnerabilities before attackers exploit them. It supports security teams with continuous manual testing conducted by skilled researchers, while reducing the hassle and cost associated with traditional bug bounty programs. The platform prioritizes findings, streamlines remediation, and offers a subscription-based model for ongoing access to testing and services. Unlike traditional one-off bug bounty setups, Inspectiv emphasizes continuous coverage and enterprise-ready management of external attack surfaces. The company aims to make bug bounty and continuous pentesting accessible and efficient for enterprise organizations and beyond.
