What began in 2016 as the vision of founder Stijn Jans, an experienced cybersecurity consultant and entrepreneur, has rapidly evolved into Europe's leading crowdsourced security platform. Intigriti was born from the identified need in the market for a more dynamic and effective approach to cybersecurity testing. The journey started in Antwerp, Belgium, with a mission to connect organizations with a global community of ethical hackers to proactively uncover and address vulnerabilities. This hacker-powered approach was designed to transcend the limitations of traditional, once-a-year penetration testing, offering a solution better suited to the fast-paced, agile development cycles of modern companies.
From its inception, Intigriti has championed the power of the crowd, building a community that now boasts over 100,000 ethical hackers from across the globe. This community is the core of the company's success, providing continuous, real-world security testing for a diverse range of clients, including prominent names like Intel, Yahoo!, and Red Bull. The company's growth trajectory has been impressive, marked by a Series A funding round in 2020 and a subsequent €21 million Series B in 2022. This financial backing has fueled international expansion, with a growing team of over 100 employees now spread across Belgium, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and South Africa. Intigriti's platform not only helps businesses secure their digital assets but also empowers ethical hackers, providing them with opportunities to utilize their skills for good and earn significant rewards. The company's commitment to creating a safer digital world is evident in its innovative services, including bug bounty programs, vulnerability disclosure programs (VDPs), and hybrid penetration testing, all designed to make the internet a more secure place for everyone.
