Acquisition Aligns Seamlessly with Long-Term Goals and Objectives Centering Around Continual Innovation and Enhancement of the Bugcrowd AI-Powered Platform
SAN FRANCISCO, May 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bugcrowd, a leading provider of crowdsourced security, today announced it has acquired Informer, a leading provider of external attack surface management (ASM) and continuous penetration testing. This acquisition widens Bugcrowd’s innovation lead in providing crowdsourced security to customers of all sizes, and in all industries, delivered through a flexible, data- and AI-driven SaaS platform. By integrating Informer’s expertise and technologies into its portfolio, Bugcrowd will further accelerate its reach and capabilities to customers globally with even more advanced solutions to address their evolving needs for proactive security. Further terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

“I am excited to welcome Informer to the Bugcrowd team,” said Dave Gerry, CEO, Bugcrowd. “This marks the first acquisition following our $102 million fundraise and underscores our dedication to ongoing growth and innovation. Our mission is to develop a platform that anticipates and predicts cyber risks. By nurturing a trusted community built on the collective ingenuity of organizations, hackers, and security professionals, we aim to mitigate risk across all applications, systems, and infrastructure. We are committed to evolving both organically and through acquisition, and we will continue to deliver the best possible experience to our customers. I am confident that this addition to the Bugcrowd Team and platform will greatly benefit our customers, employees, and shareholders.”
ASM is a critical aspect of modern security-minded organizations’ overall cybersecurity strategy, involving the identifying, assessing, and continuous monitoring of potential vulnerabilities and threats that exist in an organization’s external-facing systems, applications, and networks. Founded in 2014, UK-based Informer’s scalable external ASM software harnesses the power of continuous asset discovery, and integrated expert penetration testing. The company provides security and IT leaders with business-critical security insights to monitor and reduce cyber risk. This new combination enables Bugcrowd to expand its footprint in the growing ASM market – $3.3 billion by 2029 at a (CAGR) of 29%.
“By joining forces with Bugcrowd, Informer’s exceptional team and innovation in Attack Surface Management and PTaaS will continue to disrupt the traditional penetration testing market, giving us a competitive edge in the crowdsourced security industry,” said Marios Kyriacou, CEO of Informer.
Informer automates the identification of the external attack surface from organizations and provides specialized penetration testing services to its clients. The company combines continuous asset discovery, and penetration testing in one platform, bringing together the power of machine learning and expert penetration testing in a single SaaS solution. Informer has built a strong external ASM platform that provides organizations with real-time visibility into their perimeter. The combination of the two platforms will enhance the value that customers receive from Bugcrowd by bringing best-of-breed asset discovery and monitoring to multiple use cases. Informer’s expert-led penetration testing capability and ASM platform will strongly complement Bugcrowd penetration testing services and its existing Attack Surface Management offering (Bugcrowd ASM Risk) powered by the hacker community.
“Informer’s ASM SaaS platform, and penetration testing capabilities will further enhance Bugcrowd’s AI-powered crowdsourced security platform,” said Tanya Gay, Chief Operating Officer at Bugcrowd. “Informer’s customers will continue to have access to Informer’s platform and products without service disruption. Our combined world-class portfolio of offerings will be fully integrated by Q3 and available globally to further support both of our customers’ continual threat and exposure management programs.”
Powered by the crowd, Bugcrowd unleashes the ingenuity of the global hacker community for proactive cybersecurity.

Precisely Points of Interest data helps fuel groundbreaking City Forward® technology, transforming real estate with artificial intelligence
BURLINGTON, Mass., May 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Precisely, the global leader in data integrity, today announced that Generali Real Estate, one of the world’s leading real estate asset managers, relies on Precisely for its unparalleled data enrichment expertise. Precisely Points of Interest (POI) data helps Generali Real Estate unlock greater context from location data and fuel artificial intelligence (AI) advancements transforming the real estate market.

When Generali Real Estate became one of the first real estate asset managers to establish a dedicated division for AI and machine learning (ML) innovation, its first task was to disrupt the traditional decision-making processes that usually inform precise investment strategies. Standard real estate metrics often do not reveal the reason for significant variances in the value of different assets, even when very similar assets are located only within a few streets of each other. In fact, the team discovered that as much as 60% change in value, observed over a seven-year period, could not be explained without additional data inputs.
To address these challenges, Generali Real Estate developed City Forward®, an innovative cloud-based location intelligence platform for real estate investment managers to make smarter decisions powered by highly accurate AI-driven insights. To achieve this at scale throughout Europe required navigating the changing and diverse characteristics of different cities while maintaining maximum levels of data integrity.
City Forward leverages Precisely Points of Interest data, alongside data from other third-party providers, to deliver comprehensive information on business locations, leisure hot spots, and other geographic features – revealing hidden insights on real estate assets. Precisely POI data is also uniquely geocoded leveraging the Precisely portfolio of market-leading geo addressing solutions, ensuring customers are equipped with the most accurate location and address information possible.
“Ultimately, without data context, there is no such thing as AI in the field of location intelligence,” said Costanza Balboni Cestelli, Head of Data Intelligence and Innovation at Generali Real Estate. “Precisely provides us with access to accurate, consistent, and contextual enrichment data that helps power our AI/ML models in a way that is both scalable and reliable.”
The City Forward platform uses over 800 variables and 30 different AI/ML models to deliver intelligence for investment analysis and real estate valuation, including sustainability considerations such as carbon emissions and climate action. Insights from Precisely POI data also help power the platform for a broader range of important uses, including retail site selection, urban planning, geo-targeted marketing, and more.
Research shows that 94% of business leaders agree AI is critical to success over the next five years, but despite this, 4% of leaders believe their data is not AI-ready. It highlights a concerning disconnect between the growing rates of AI adoption and levels of confidence in the data feeding the models behind it.
“For trusted AI, you need data integrity, and that means ensuring the accuracy, consistency, and context of the data fueling AI models,” said Tendü Yoğurtçu, PhD, Chief Technology Officer at Precisely. “To ensure trusted business decisions powered by AI, it’s crucial for organizations to be able to integrate data at the speed it’s needed, understand and govern its responsible use, observe and improve its quality, and enrich it for maximum context.”
Precisely offers a unique combination of software, data, and data strategy services to help businesses worldwide leverage trusted data for advanced analytics and AI initiatives. The company’s comprehensive data enrichment portfolio contains over 400 datasets and more than 9000 attributes, including POI datasets, to help customers unlock the true potential of their data.
