Frequently Asked Questions

What is bug bounty?

Arrr matey, bug bounties be the ultimate treasure hunt for cybersecurity! We mobilize a crew of expert pirates to scour the seven seas (or, y'know, a company's website) for vulnerabilities. And we reward 'em handsomely for every treasure they find, based on the severity of the loot and the quality of their report.


Bug bounties set sail back in 1995 with Netscape, and they've been helping organizations shore up their cyber defenses ever since. It's a win-win situation - pirates get paid, and companies stay secure. All hands on deck!

How are pirates rewarded?

Avast ye landlubbers, on Port Royal we've got a simple policy - there can be only one winner for each vulnerability. The first pirate to submit a valid report gets the treasure. And we've got a handy map (aka the bounty levels) to guide us in determining how much gold each bounty is worth. It all depends on the level of severity of the vulnerability, as deemed by the client.


And when it comes to payment, we've got a trusted third-party platform to handle the transaction and make sure everything is shipshape and compliant with all them pesky European regulations. So no need to worry about your hard-earned booty disappearing into the depths of Davy Jones' locker - it's all above board on Port Royal.

Are these pirates trustworthy?

On Port Royal, we've assembled a motley crew of the most skilled security researchers on the high seas (or, y'know, the internet). Many of these scurvy dogs are full-time pirates, working as penetration testers, security engineers, and developers by day.


But when the moon rises, they're on the hunt for bugs and vulnerabilities. With so many skilled pirates at the helm, we're able to take on more bounties and find even more treasure. So gather round, ye swashbucklers - join our crew and let's make some gold!

How do bug bounties fit with traditional

security assessment methods?

On Port Royal, we believe in the power of layers when it comes to security. Scanners and penetration tests are all well and good, but they can only take ye so far. Automation has its limits, and even the most advanced systems can only find what they know to look for.


That's where bug bounties come in - they're the perfect complement to any mature security program, filling in the gaps left by scanners and increasing the chances of finding treasure exponentially. So don't just rely on one method - bring in the big guns and use a variety of approaches to keep your booty safe.
