We’re excited to announce a new partnership with Meta Bug Bounty, bringing together two organizations committed to raising the bar for web security at a global scale.

This partnership brings together Meta’s industry-leading bug bounty program, Burp Suite and the Web Security Academy (WSA), with a shared mission: to help bug hunters find more vulnerabilities, faster, and strengthen collaboration across the global security research community.

More power for bug hunters

This partnership highlights our education-first philosophy and Meta's commitment to community investment and accessibility, all of which are designed to give bug bounty hunters, who are central to AppSec, the resources they need to thrive.

Alongside Meta Bug Bounty, we’ll equip pentesters with the tools they need to work more efficiently and create clearer pathways to high-impact findings.

The ultimate outcome is a safer web, achieved through an increase in findings and a greater overall impact.

An education-first approach to bug bounty

At PortSwigger, education has always been central to how we approach web security.

This partnership reflects that.

Alongside access to Burp Suite Professional, we’re working with Meta to strengthen the learning pathways available to pentesters by combining:

• PortSwigger’s Web Security Academy (WSA) for structured, hands-on training
• Meta’s Bug Bounty Education Centre for real-world context and application

The aim is to bridge the gap between learning and executing, helping pentesters move from understanding vulnerabilities to successfully identifying them in complex, live targets.

As modern applications grow more complex, so do the challenges of securing them.

Together, we’re aiming to make discovering high-impact vulnerabilities more efficient across complex web environments and increase coverage of real-world attack surfaces.

For bug hunters in HackerPlus Silver leagues on Meta Bug Bounty, access to professional-grade tooling can make a significant difference, improving efficiency, depth of testing, and overall impact.

PortSwigger and Meta Bug Bounty both believe in the power of community. We are also proud to announce that we will be sponsoring Meta's Bug Bounty Researcher Conference this year.

From Burp Suite’s role as the industry-standard toolkit to Meta’s long-standing investment in bug bounty programs, both organizations have consistently backed pentesters as a force for good.

This partnership takes that commitment further, amplifying the impact of the global bug bounty community.
