Hire a Penetration Tester / Bug Bounty Hunter

XGuard's Penetration Tester / Bug Bounty Hunter category covers offensive security professionals who simulate cyberattacks to identify vulnerabilities in networks, applications, and infrastructure. To hire one, tell XGuard what you need protected, along with your location and timing, and XGuard matches you with independent penetration tester / bug bounty hunters already active nearby. Every professional passes Stripe Identity verification (government ID plus a live selfie match) before their profile goes live, and where a license applies to the service, XGuard checks it directly against the issuing regulator — one of 168 authorities checked across 40+ countries — rather than taking it on the professional's word. You see the rate, reviews, and real-time availability before you book, so nothing is quoted blind. Payment sits in escrow from the moment you confirm and only releases once the work is complete.
