What we do at Detectify

Detectify was born from the simple idea that the internet is broken. Our founders are some of the best ethical hackers in the world. They have found critical vulnerabilities at tech giants like Google, Facebook, and Dropbox and used their hacker knowledge to build an advanced web application security scanner that is used by companies such as Spotify, Trello, and KING.

In addition to our internal security researchers, we collaborate with a global network of handpicked white-hat hackers to make sure our service is updated with the latest security threats. Based in central Stockholm, Sweden, we are currently a team of 50+ employees and growing quickly.

The core team

The core team is responsible for everything from architecture to testing and implementation of the core product. This means our scanner, as well as other components like our web crawler, API, fingerprinting function, integrations and much more. Our core team guarantees our customers the best performance possible, along with fingerprinting accuracy, crawling efficiency and a broad vulnerability scope.

The tech stack that the team is working with includes:

• Go, .NET, Java, Python
• RabbitMQ
• AWS (RDS, S3, EC2, Glue, Athena, Firehose, Kubernetes)
• Elasticsearch

Today the team consists of 7 developers but are continuously growing. We work with pair programming, follow Agile and DevOps principles. The team also plans rolling releases with continuous integration. We encourage continuous improvement and learning with activities such as team hackathons and lightning talks.
