Crowdsourced triage has uncovered critical website vulnerabilities and continuously improves our security posture
Bugcrowd could be improved or enhanced as they seem to have a lot of internal churn at the moment, so they could be more stable and more customer-focused. By customer-focused, I mean they are not very good at communicating what is changing on their side to their customers. I am now on my fourth account manager within one year. My latest call with them was with the fourth account manager saying there have been many changes and apologizing that no one I have spoken to in the past is on this call, but going forwards it will be them. With the fourth account manager in a year, it is hard to trust that message.

Offers data models that learn the patterns and behavior of the internal network
I really like the artificial intelligence feature that utilizes automated versioning through AI Yellow Prism. It has a lot of data models that learn the patterns and behavior of the internal network. If something abnormal happens, it raises a flag or alert. The GUI control interface was good and very attractive, and setting up the tool was easy with the help of online articles. Customization was also possible for each department.

Cons

"Bugcrowd could be improved or enhanced as they seem to have a lot of internal churn at the moment, so they could be more stable and more customer-focused."

"The next release should have threat indicators that categorize various types of threats and their immediate solution."
"Sometimes we can see the documentation and follow its instructions to apply a new rule or policy, and sometimes we don't get the expected result by following them."
