HackerOne

HackerOne is a vulnerability coordination and bug bounty program that companies use to invite hackers to find security vulnerabilities in their systems. By integrating HackerOne with Brinqa, you can bring in activity data, pentest findings, and discovered weaknesses to prioritize and mitigate potential risks, gain insights into your attack surface, and enhance your cybersecurity posture.

This document details the information you must provide for the connector to authenticate with HackerOne and how to obtain that information from HackerOne. See create a data integration for step-by-step instructions on setting up the integration.

Required connection settings

When setting up a data integration, select HackerOne from the Connector drop-down. If you cannot find the connector in the drop-down, make sure that you have installed it first. You must provide the following information to authenticate HackerOne with Brinqa:

• API URL: The HackerOne API URL. The default URL is https://api.hackerone.com.

• API ID and API key: The API credentials associated with the HackerOne user, which must have permissions to log in to the API server and return data.

Generate a HackerOne API ID and API key

For the HackerOne connector to use the HackerOne API, you must provide the API ID and API key from HackerOne. Only HackerOne program administrators can generate API keys. To generate a new HackerOne API key, follow these steps:

1. Log in to your HackerOne account as an administrator.

2. Navigate to Organization Settings > API Tokens.

3. Click Create API Token.

4. Give the new API token an identifier. The identifier must begin with a letter or a number and can only contain letters, numbers, hyphens, or underscores.

   • The identifier is the API ID that is used for authenticating the HackerOne connector with Brinqa. The API ID is case sensitive.

5. Select the Admin and Standard groups. Both are required for the HackerOne connector to work with Brinqa. The Admin group grants permissions to collect Program data while the Standard group grants permissions to collect Report data.

6. Click Add API token.

   Your new API key displays. You cannot view the key again. Copy the token and save it in a secure location.

7. Click I have stored the API token.

note

For additional information on API tokens, see the HackerOne documentation.

Additional settings

The HackerOne connector contains additional options for specific configuration:

• Page size: The maximum number of records to get per API request. The default setting is 100. It is not recommended to go over 100.

• Parallel requests: The maximum number of parallel API requests. The default setting is 4.

Types of data to retrieve

The HackerOne connector can retrieve the following types of data from the HackerOne API:

Local variable indicates that the field is processed within a specific context, such as a particular workflow or calculation. Unlike other attributes, local variables aren't mapped to the unified data models. They only exist on the source data model.

Operation options

The HackerOne connector supports the following operation options. See connector operation options for information about how to apply them.

Table 6: HackerOne connector operation options
