Come funziona

La selezione richiede settimane, non minuti.

È deliberato. Il livello di qualità è il motivo per cui i nostri clienti si fidano del collettivo.

Passo 0110 min

Apply

Submit your profile, specialty, and a short "best find" writeup. Real writeups only — we read them.

Passo 0245 min · live

Technical screen

Video call with two senior testers. Deep technical questions on your primary specialty, no whiteboard puzzles.

Passo 03~8 hrs · async

Practical challenge

A realistic engagement scenario. You get a scope, a target, and a week. We evaluate the process, not just the findings.

Passo 041 week

Reference check

Two references, ideally people who have shipped an engagement with you. We ask about how you work, not just what you found.

Passo 052 weeks

Onboard

Sign the collective agreement, get platform access, shadow one engagement, then lead your first. You are in.

Cosa ottieni

Un modello costruito per i professionisti, non per i lavoratori a cottimo.

Paid fairly, tier-based

Transparent daily-rate tiers. Senior researchers earn $1,400 – $2,200/day. Tiers are published; the ladder is visible.

Choose your engagements

Match engagements to your specialty and calendar. Never assigned to work you did not opt into.

In-house senior leads

Every engagement has a SecureBlock full-time lead. You are not sold as a warm body to a client account manager.

Direct client credit

Your callsign appears in the report. Clients know who found what. Portfolio grows with every engagement.

Private disclosure programmes

Access to a curated list of private VDP and bug-bounty targets that partner with SecureBlock.

No lead-gen or sales work

You never write proposals, never sit in scoping calls, never hunt for logo work. Just the testing.

Dal collettivo

Cosa dicono i membri attuali.

"The vetting was serious in a way I hadn't experienced before. The practical challenge was a real target, real business logic, and a real week to work through it. I felt more respected as a tester by the time I passed than by any full-time job I've held."

K. Adebayo @n3rvous
Web app + cloud

"I do this collective a couple weeks per quarter. The rest of the time I run my own research. SecureBlock treats me like a professional, pays on time, and never asks me to fill in a timesheet. I've stopped looking for anything else."

M. Ivanova @byte0
Mobile / Android

"The thing that sold me was that every engagement has a senior in-house lead. I know exactly who I'm reporting to, they know my work, and if I need backup on something novel there is always someone to page."

R. Nakamura @piprock
Hardware / IoT
FAQ

Le domande che fanno davvero i ricercatori.

Scrivici se la tua non è qui — la risposta viene da una persona in carne e ossa.

No. La maggior parte del collettivo lavora con noi part-time — una o due settimane per trimestre è comune. Alcuni sono a tempo pieno sulla piattaforma. Entrambi sono benvenuti.
