Ahead of their public launch, CloudQix opened its no-code software integration platform to the cybersecurity community with the inaugural CloudQix Security Hackathon.
From May 17–19, participants attempted to find vulnerabilities on the CloudQix platform in the hopes of taking home cash prizes. Hackers submitted everything from standard attack patterns to specialized attacks attempting to penetrate access control validation, protocols, data security, authentication/SSO, interface behaviors, and a variety of other attacks. Submissions were graded on severit,y with special points awarded for creativity.
“Congrats to our Hackathon winners, we had a great group of cybersecurity enthusiasts and enjoyed watching them try a variety of unique attacks on the platform,” said founder, David Potts, “We’ll use the information to continue our security hardening as we prepare for launch. Stay tuned for news on the next Hackathon and let us know if you’re interested in participating.”
The top-awarded submissions were found by competitors Charles D. and Tarek S. Beyond the hackathon competition, CloudQix will invite participants to collaborate further with early access to the platform and a spot in the exclusive Founders Test Flight Group. This group will play a key role in shaping the future of CloudQix in partnership with their team.
By welcoming the security community into their process early, CloudQix aims to reaffirm a core belief that the strongest platforms are the ones that have been challenged, questioned, and pressure-tested by those who know where to push.
