YesWeHack Private Programs

YesWeHack Private Programs are invitation-only bug bounty programs in which only selected ethical hackers can see and test a customer's assets. They are the usual starting point for organizations new to bug bounty or for assets that are not yet ready for public exposure.

YesWeHack selects researchers from its community based on skills, track record and, where needed, background checks or nationality requirements, then invites them to a confidential program with a defined scope and reward grid. Because participation is limited, the volume of reports is manageable and details of the program stay private. Testing can target pre-production environments, authenticated areas, internal applications reached through VPN or specific technologies. Reports flow through the same triage and management workflow as other YesWeHack programs, and customers can expand the invited pool or move to a public program as their maturity grows.

Organizations use private programs to test sensitive or regulated applications, control who accesses their systems and build internal processes before opening testing to a wider audience.
