Bugcrowd’s $102M Power Move: Acquires Informer to Beef Up Security Arsenal
Bugcrowd, fresh off raising $102 million, has acquired Informer to boost its attack surface management (ASM) capabilities. This strategic move marks Bugcrowd’s first-ever acquisition and aims to enhance its security technology stack by integrating Informer’s tech, customers, and team. CEO Dave Gerry calls it a “no-brainer” for improving their ASM offerings.

Hot Take:
Bugcrowd just went shopping and picked up Informer, a UK’s finest in attack surface management (ASM). It’s like Bugcrowd went to the hacker supermarket and bought the whole deli section!
Key Points:
- Bugcrowd acquires Informer, a UK-based attack surface management specialist.
- This is Bugcrowd’s first-ever acquisition, fulfilling their earlier $102M funding promise.
- Informer was entirely bootstrapped and profitable, now joining forces with Bugcrowd.
- ASM is critical for monitoring potential attack vectors in IT environments.
- Bugcrowd aims to integrate Informer’s tech into its own stack to enhance its security offerings.
