HackerOne Unveils Tech Alliance Program to Fuse AI Agents with Human-Led Security Ops

In a cybersecurity landscape increasingly shaped by AI-driven threats and automated attack vectors, HackerOne is betting that collaboration—both human and machine—will define the future of defense.

Today, the offensive security heavyweight unveiled its PartnerOne Technology Alliance Program, a strategic initiative designed to fuse HackerOne’s AI-enhanced vulnerability management platform with the broader security ecosystem. The goal? To not only find vulnerabilities, but remediate them with speed, context, and intelligence by linking technology providers directly into the HackerOne platform.

“At HackerOne, we believe the strength of our ecosystem is measured by the collective impact we make for our customers and partners,” said John Addeo, Vice President of Partner Ecosystems at HackerOne. “This program goes beyond integration—it’s about collaboration.”

At the heart of the program is Hai, HackerOne’s AI security agent, which acts as a digital co-pilot for security teams. With Hai orchestrating intelligent triage, notification, and remediation workflows, the company aims to scale human decision-making through AI without losing the nuance required for modern vulnerability management. Through PartnerOne, third-party vendors will be able to build directly into this system—integrating exploit data, triggering targeted developer guidance, and launching remediations automatically.

The initial rollout includes high-profile integrations like Secure Code Warrior, whose secure coding education platform is being tightly woven into HackerOne’s feedback loop.

“This partnership allows our joint customers to transform HackerOne's immense vulnerability insights into targeted, actionable learning modules and AI-powered recommendations directly within developer workflows,” said Matias Madou, Co-Founder and CTO of Secure Code Warrior. “It's about empowering developers to learn from real-world findings and proactively build secure software from the start.”

The idea isn’t just to plug vulnerabilities faster—it’s to close the human-to-code feedback loop entirely. Through API access, sandbox environments, and co-marketing support, HackerOne’s partners can craft AI-augmented workflows that meet customers where they are: in the IDE, in the CI/CD pipeline, or in Slack at 3 a.m. when something breaks.

For security leaders, the appeal is clear. “Combining HackerOne's expertise in vulnerability discovery with Secure Code Warrior's focus on code security training solutions equips developers with real-world fixes for novel security vulnerabilities,” said Neil Schloth, Vice President, Global Head of Application Security at Fiserv.

The timing is critical. As large language models become a tool for both defenders and adversaries, there's mounting pressure on organizations to shrink response times and increase accuracy—without scaling headcount linearly.

“Security in the AI era demands both speed and precision,” said Nidhi Aggarwal, Chief Product Officer at HackerOne. “The Technology Alliance Program is an extension of this vision, connecting our AI-driven insights with partner innovation to deliver integrated, resilient, and adaptive security workflows that evolve with today’s threat landscape.”

While the industry has seen plenty of lip service around AI-enabled security, HackerOne’s move puts tangible infrastructure behind the buzz. With partners already onboard and an expanding suite of automation connectors, PartnerOne could offer what many vendors promise but rarely deliver: an intelligent, integrated security ecosystem that learns, adapts, and acts faster than the attackers it was built to stop.
