Web Hosting Company Security Testing Collaboration

This case study outlines how Combell, Belgium's largest web hosting company, collaborates with Intigriti to enhance its security testing processes. The document details the challenges Combell faced in testing their infrastructure security, particularly due to the need for customer data segregation in shared hosting environments. Traditional penetration testing methods were found inadequate, prompting the exploration of crowdsourced security testing. The case study describes the implementation of a bug bounty program managed by Intigriti, highlighting the obstacles faced in gaining internal support and budget management. It emphasizes the positive outcomes of the program, including an increase in vulnerability reports and improved communication between Combell and security researchers. The document also notes the structured feedback provided by Intigriti, which aids in timely bug resolution, and the budget control measures that ensure financial oversight during the testing process. Overall, the collaboration with Intigriti is presented as a strategic enhancement to Combell's security framework.
