About BugRakshak

Securing India's Digital Future

We started BugRakshak because we believed that every startup deserves the same quality security as the enterprises — without the enterprise price tag. That belief drives every decision we make.

Our Mission

To make enterprise-grade security testing accessible to every company — from a 5-person startup to a 500-person scaleup — by connecting them with the world's best security researchers on fair, transparent terms.

Our Values

What We Believe In

Security First

Every product decision starts with security. We eat our own dog food — our own platform runs a public bug bounty.

Researcher Respect

Researchers are partners, not a service. We fight for their rights: fair pay, fast triage, legal protection.

Accessibility

Enterprise security shouldn't require enterprise budgets. We're on a mission to democratize security.

Speed

In security, time to remediation matters. We optimize every workflow for speed without sacrificing quality.
