In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, YesWeHack recognises the vital role our hunters play in securing our clients' digital assets and their customers' sensitive data.
To this end, we periodically send special posters to ethical hackers who have notched exceptional achievements in Bug Bounty hunting. These range from claiming maximum bounties to dominating the leaderboard or crafting imaginative, engaging Dojo challenges.
Embracing the cosmic expanse of cyberspace, we are thrilled to introduce our latest collection of achievements: the Galactic Guardians series!
These are more than just acknowledgments – they are a testament to the skill, persistence and ingenuity of our highest-performing hunters. With a celestial theme, these achievements are designed to express our gratitude to our community of hunters – and hopefully inspire them to even greater heights!
When and how are the hacker achievements awarded?
These coveted achievements are awarded quarterly.
Every three months, we assess the performance and contributions of our hunters. Those who meet the criteria for any of the achievements will receive a special email from YesWeHack.
Along with this recognition, you'll receive a physical poster celebrating your achievement – and serving as a tangible reminder of your hacking prowess!
Please note: each physical poster is sent only once per researcher. So if you win, say, the 'Black Hole' achievement in the first quarter and then again in the third, you will receive the 'Black Hole' poster only for the first of these achievements.
