CrowdRecon is coming: turning hacker reconnaissance into security intelligence

By Greg Jenkins

CrowdRecon

At DEF CON 34, our team introduced something exciting. Something the Intigriti team has been building for months, and our Senior Product Manager, Radu Voloaga, took to the stage in the Bug Bounty Village to give everyone the first real look at CrowdRecon.

How CrowdRecon closes the gap

It started with a question we kept running into: what happens to all the reconnaissance work hackers do before a vulnerability is even found? That work rarely makes it into a report, but it's often where the real signal begins: the forgotten domains, the unusual paths, the systems that don't quite sit right. Most of that thinking disappears the moment it doesn't turn into a confirmed finding, and that's the gap CrowdRecon is built to close.

We've been running it in private beta with a small group of hackers and customers, and it's already shaping up to be exactly the kind of thing this industry has been missing.

What this means for hackers

The exploration behind a finding finally has somewhere to go. The domains you flagged, the paths you followed, the things that felt worth a second look: all of it counts now. Recognised and rewarded, not just the report at the end.

What this means for security teams

You get visibility into what trusted researchers are seeing, questioning, and paying attention to across your environment, long before any of it becomes a confirmed issue. Instead of waiting for the next report to understand your exposure, you get a live, ongoing read on how your attack surface looks through the eyes of the community.

Next steps

Keep an eye on our socials. There is more coming soon!
