VVDN and Bugcrowd Partner to Expand Security Services

VVDN Technologies, a leading product engineering, cloud and manufacturing company, and Bugcrowd, the #1 crowdsourced security company, today announced a strategic partnership to extend security services for their customers.

VVDN is a premier Original Design Manufacturer (ODM) for cloud-managed IoT solutions with more than 2,000 engineers across nine design centers and four manufacturing plants in India, as well as a global presence across the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Asia. Bugcrowd combines the largest, experienced triage team with the most trusted hackers around the world to support enterprise organizations in managing their Bug Bounty, Vulnerability Disclosure, and Next Gen Pen Test programs.

Through the partnership, VVDN customers will gain access to Bugcrowd's crowdsourced security solutions and platform through an OEM agreement. Bugcrowd security researchers will be provided more program opportunities, including assisting VVDN customers who opt in with code assessment projects. Additionally, new joint remediation services provide Bugcrowd customers access to VVDN engineers with expertise in IoT, mobile, and cloud.

"We're thrilled by the strategic fit between Bugcrowd and VVDN," said Vivek Bansal, co-founder and President, Engineering of VVDN. "By combining the power of the Bugcrowd and our expert engineers, we'll be able to deliver against our customer's fast changing security and development requirements."

"Bugcrowd readily addresses the cybersecurity skills gap with the help of our Crowd," said Ashish Gupta, CEO of Bugcrowd. "However, organizations face another hurdle when actively moving through the SDLC -- having the engineering resources to fix the found bugs. Now thanks to our new partnership with VVDN, Bugcrowd can help tackle this capacity by providing the required skills to deliver fixes to known security issues."
