Today, Bugcrowd is launching Reinforcement Learning environments. Built for AI developers and supported by our acquisition of Mayhem Security, this new offering gives LLM providers and frontier AI research teams instant access to enterprise-grade infrastructure for model training and optimization. That means teams can spend less time building platform infrastructure and more time advancing model capability. All environments are derived exclusively from open-source software. No customer data or security researcher data is used at any stage of the training process. We’re excited to share what we’ve built and help AI teams move faster with infrastructure designed for this work. Read the full announcement: https://lnkd.in/gaexAb5r

What vulnerabilities should we fix first? A simple question with a messy answer AI is helping teams find more issues faster. Now comes the harder part. Deciding which findings are likely to create risk and which ones are just making the queue look dramatic. Join Julian Brownlow Davies and Alistair G. at The Hive at Infosecurity Europe for a rapid-fire session on prioritization through an offensive lens 🔎 📅 Wednesday, 3 June ⏰ 12:00–12:30pm Your remediation queue deserves it: https://lnkd.in/g-rdYQmj

Verizon DBIR 2026 found that exploiting software vulnerabilities has overtaken stolen credentials as the top initial access method for the first time in the report’s 19-year history. For security teams, that changes things. As ☁️ Trey Ford, Bugcrowd’s Chief Strategy and Trust Officer, shared with Hackread, this is “not primarily a credential story; it is an economics story.” When flaws can be researched and weaponized in hours, annual testing isn't enough. Security teams need a more continuous way to validate what matters before attackers get there first. Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/eaBwYBK7

“AI is going to help with a lot of things but we’re never going to replace that human creativity.” Bugcrowd CEO Dave Gerry spoke with Financial Times about the rise of AI-generated bug bounty submissions and what it means for the future of security research. AI can speed up discovery, but security teams still need trusted researchers to turn findings into real risk reduction. Keep reading: https://lnkd.in/g-tDAw9m

In the year 2040 cybersecurity will… Tell us what you think 🤔👇
I had the privilege of representing Bugcrowd at a sponsor table for another amazing ENUSEC Le Tour du Hack this weekend. Since we’re an advanced cybersecurity company I wanted to break out the most advanced technology to discuss the future of our industry: scissors, glue, post-its, and markers. ✂️ 🗒️🖍️ That's right a poster board was our medium to answer the prompt: “In the year 2040 cybersecurity will…” The responses were what you’d expect these days from optimistic to dire to feline. Yet, there’s a part of me that experiences events organized and run by students and feels more than a dose of optimism. Thanks to all who shared your thoughts and those that had to think a little bit longer you have fourteen years... Please use the prompt at your next in person and share back the results. Let me know your favorite.
