Hacken Ecosystem, should the token sale reach its target milestones.

The Hacken Ecosystem is a community driven business organization
that will result from this token sale and will be incorporated in a number, Buying Hackens today, will allow
one to receive high quality cybersecurity services in the future, at an
attractive price.

Please bear in mind, that all the financial data and legal documentation
related to this token sale are available separately from this white paper

Introduction

$32M stolen from Parity and $7.4M from Coindash in 2017, $72M from
Bitfinex in 2016, $5.1M from Bitstamp in 2015, $65M from Mt. Gox in
2014. These are gruesome fiat equivalents lost to hackers by various
cryptocurrency infrastructure projects.
According to
Tyler Moore of Tulsa’s Tandy School of Computer Science
,
since bitcoin’s inception in 2009 to March 2015, around 33% of all bitcoin
exchanges during that period were hacked. Cryptocurrencies certainly
are not the only businesses distressed by hackers. US President Donald
Trump, himself a subject of a recent cybersecurity controversy, stated that
cybertheft is the fastest growing crime in the United States by far.

Introduction

Unfortunately, there is not enough talent to make use of these enormous
financial resources. According to
CyberSeek
there are more than 348,000
open cybersecurity positions in 2017, and this number will be up to
1.8M by 2022. Combined with an unaccounted for number of blackhat
hackers, employed on the opposite side of the firewall, these statistics
demand a swift response.

Until recently, Eastern Europe, and Ukraine in particular, had been a safe
haven for various controversial online operations.

Ukraine also has a long history of somewhat complicated relationship
with blockchain. While Bitcoin has never been fully recognized as

legitimate payment instrument within the country, Ukrainian startups and
experts are among the global leaders in the blockchain revolution.

The story of
BitFury
proves the point. Established in 2011 in Kyiv BitFury
was controlling around 9.5% of entire Bitcoin processing power
as of
January 2017
, an achievement enabled by the custom tailored mining
chipsets developed by BitFury hardware engineers.

BitFury also secured a number of unique B2G partnerships, including
the first ever project to secure the land titles via blockchain which BitFury
launched in cooperation
with the government of Georgia
(the country).

The outsourcing expertise provides sufficient influx of cash for computer
professionals to feel secure and for the once powerful hard science
education to start its revival. For example, DefConUA, a team of white
hackers originating from Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, became
the best ‘capture-the-flag’ team of 2016 according to
CTFTime
rating.

Our goal at Hacken is to lay down the future white hat cybersecurity
community framework of Eastern Europe by creating a stable means of
income and financial incentives for its members. In the long run, your
participation in the Hacken Ecosystem will make sure the next generation
of local computer whiz kids will be on your side of the firewall.
Introduction

What is the Hacken

Ecosystem?

Our ecosystem consists of a token — the Hacken, and a constellation

of businesses providing services, which can be received only by using

Hacken as a payment instrument. The amount of Hackens is finite,

limited to 20 million tokens that will be distributed during the pre-sale

and the main token sale.

The businesses comprising the Hacken Ecosystem are the HackenProof

bug bounty marketplace, Unreported Zero-Day Remuneration Platform,

Hacken Cybersecurity Startups Incubator, Cybersecurity Analytics

Center and HackIT Conference. Each element of this ecosystem is

further described in a separate section of this paper.

The big idea behind Hacken is that it turns each owner of Hackens
into a community member. Because Hacken is a specialized software
utility token, being primarily focused on cybersecurity professionals and
projects, it will also bring these people together by providing incentives
for doing business with one another and for investment in cybersecurity
startups. These people will need to communicate and interact with
each other in order to make use of their Hackens. The more vibrant the
community is, the more value it delivers to each member.

While our ecosystem has solid business plan and product roadmap, it
is not only about business. Our aim is also to grow and support various
community events and meetups in Europe and elsewhere in the World,
including HackIT — the largest international cybersecurity conference in
Ukraine.

The cybersecurity business is very much about expertise, ethics and
persistent training. By supporting HackIT, we want to ensure that we
give back to the community which empowers our platform.

A great illustration of our core values is the story of Oleksii Matiiasevych
— Ukrainian cybersecurity professional, EDCC architect at Ambisafe and
our technology advisor in this token sale.

The ultimate goal of our ecosystem, is to create a generation of hackers
to whom what Oleksii did is entirely normal, the only acceptable life
scenario.

How Does Hacken Make

Use of Blockchain?

Proof of Vulnerability Testing

When clients sign the bug bounty program agreement, our team

creates a relevant blockchain block containing data about the product,

the terms of service agreement and a timestamp. The next block of

the chain, which is specific to this client, will contain information on

vulnerabilities, discovered during our security research.

After clients resolve the vulnerabilities that were discovered during the

bug bounty research, HackenProof experts conduct a post-research

audit. We then discuss our findings with the clients and advise any

additional measures which need to be taken. Should the findings of the

audit be satisfactory to both parties, our team and the clients, we form

the next block in the chain, which contains information about the issues

that were resolved.

At the end, clients receive a HackenProof Vulnerabilities and

Countermeasures Certificate, containing a report on all the

vulnerabilities discovered and resolved with a

timestamp for each event. Clients can then adjust their Blockchain

sharing preferences and publish the certificate to the public, customers,

investors or to whomever they designate

Cryptocurrency

Besides use of the blockchain in cybersecurity, this token sale

also features an interesting financial innovation in the area of

cryptocurrencies. That is our “burning” principle, which we explain in a

separate section

of this paper.

Why Yet Another

Cybersecurity Marketplace?

As you can see from our

brief market analysis

in the Addendum to this

paper, or from your own personal observations, there are already at

least four existing bug bounty and penetration testing services. Each of

these has a growing customer base and investor support ranging from

several to 74M US dollars. So the obvious question is: does the market

really need yet another one?

We think it does.

Here are the reasons why:

Currently the supply fails to meet the demand in the area of penetration
testing and bug bounty programs.Recently Mazda sponsored a CTF contest in Las Vegas, in which the winner received a truck. After, Jeep, Tesla and Nissan LEAF hacks, the
automotive industry is desperate for highly qualified bounty hunters and
penetration testers. In our situation, that translates to: no, four existing
services are painfully not enough.

A cybersecurity ecosystem that is custom-tailored for blockchain. Being
blockchain entrepreneurs ourselves, we understand this technology,
its nuances, risks and its community better than most of the current
cybersecurity establishment. Reading about blockchain in the Wall
Street Journal, discussing it with colleagues over a cup of coffee and
investing a few thousand dollars in Bitcoin just for fun, is one thing.

Did we forget the SME? Small and medium enterprises cannot afford the
benefits of the enterprise penetration testing and bug bounty programs.
This does not mean they don’t need one. In the current cybersecurity
environment, being a small business means very limited access to
the perks of modern computer security infrastructure.

Same time zone, same cultural values. Hacken will be among the first
movers in the European market of bug bounty marketplaces. Currently
this market is dominated by Silicon Valley based providers. This is
perfectly understandable, but San Francisco and Bay Area are not the
only place in the World where good software and hardware projects are
created. There is still enough demand for services based in other parts
of the World and providing good value for the money.

The Hacken Token

For millennia immeasurable, money had been an efficient, yet not the
main driver, in uniting human organizations and driving their subsequent
growth and development.

Hacken is the only currency accepted inside our ecosystem. Any
new orders via HackenProof, Unreported Zero-Day Remuneration
Platform, Cybersecurity Analytics Center or new investments via Hacken
Accelerator must be made in Hackens. This will reward community
members who get paid in Hackens, by providing positive liquidity and
low volatility.

Please note: Hackens are not intended to be a digital currency,
commodity or any other kind of financial instrument, do not represent
any share, stake or security or equivalent rights, including, but not
limited to, any right to receive future revenue shares and intellectual
property rights, and do not represent any ownership right.

HKN Sale

Besides use of the blockchain in cybersecurity, this token sale

also features an interesting financial innovation in the area of

cryptocurrencies. That is our “burning” principle, which we explain in a

separate section of this paper.

The «Burning» Principle

We invented the “burning” principle for this token sale for regulatory

reasons that might otherwise prevent customers residing in some

jurisdictions from participating. We also believe that “burning” will

expedite the growth of liquidity, and lessen the volatility risks for Hacken.

It is important for all owners of Hacken to understand that “burning”

affects only the platform fees, thus reducing the amount of Hackens

which we, the founders of the platform, not our customers or clients,

own.

What happens to the other 50% of our service margin that is not

burned? The managing company of the Hacken Ecosystem will

accumulate these Hackens until their amount reaches 1% of the total

amount of Hackens in circulation.

Upon this event we will make 24 hours announcement, and then sell

1% of the amount accumulated at the moment of the event (i.e. 0.01%

of the total amount of Hackens as of the moment of the event) via the

major cryptocurrency exchanges. The sale will take place at

14:00 EET on the day following the day of the announcement. The list

of exchanges will be provided to the public at the time of occurrence of

the first such sale. We reserve the right to amend the list of exchanges in

the future.

The “burning” will change the settled exchange rate of Hackens v. other
crypto or fiat currencies. We need this to keep a decent price tag for

Escrow and Audit

The escrow agents are involved in the process of guarding and
managing the assets of investors. Their function is to monitor the use of
the collected funds according to
the roadmap
described in this paper.
The escrow agents can veto the transaction by applying
a cryptographic key to the project’s HKN wallet, which we use to
accumulate funds from investors.

The escrow account providers will be Juscutum and one of the Big 4
audit companies selected via tender managed by the Public Board of
Trustees of the Hacken Ecosystem.

The yearly audit of the financial statements of the legal entities
comprising the Hacken Ecosystem will be conducted by an
internationally recognized audit organisation, selected via tender
managed by the Public Board of Trustees of the Hacken Ecosystem

Who Are We?

We all were involved in various cybersecurity projects for the majority of

our careers.

We long have seen Ukraine as a country of huge potential in the area

of cybersecurity. Recent state-sponsored cyberattacks on the country’s

infrastructure led us to believe that our time had come

Why Does It

Matter?

It is not news that cybersecurity is currently hot and so are cryptocurrencies.

Nor is it anymore surprising to the World that Eastern Europe had

currently become a testing range for state-sponsored cyber warfare.

Currently Ukraine is a notorious illustration of how traditional institutions

failed to protect those for which they were created.

Blockchain is also under attack and also recently became the

testing range for various penetration and hacking techniques, as we

determined in the

Introduction

section above. Increasingly more use

cases of blockchain appear. The hackers’ attention increases as well.

Finally, while taking the best talent from the existing ecosystem, we

want to make sure to give back. This effort is our support of

HackIT

Conference

and creation of

Cybersecurity Analytics Center.

HackIT already serves as a storefront for the profession. It is an

inspiration for future generations and a place of knowledge exchange

between established and aspiring cybersecurity professionals. The

Center will then employ and support those people, who don’t feel like

starting their own business and are more inclined towards an academic

and research career, moving forward the fundamental science of

cybersecurity.

There are more projects to come, and they are already in our roadmap

and on our radar. However, we realise that the existing milestones are

already very ambitious and will require our full commitment at least for

several years. So we better do what must be done first, and then “we will

live on and we will see”, as the common expression goes.

We hope this paper provided solid arguments and detailed information

and ultimately convinced you to participate in our Hacken sale. If so,

welcome to the Hacken Ecosystem and we’ll see you soon as our

respected community member and client. If not, we will be happy to

provide you with additional assistance and more details at

High touch features, including the ability to have an expert provide

debriefs on severely exploitable vulnerabilities.

Researchers are allowed access to private bug bounties programs.

In addition to hosting a platform to manage customer’s program.

In resource-constrained environments, customer may wish to outsource

parts of her program.

These types of bounty programs are typically of shorter duration and have

a capped expenditure, which means you can limit your costs associated

with scope content and thereby rival traditional outsourced penetration

tests.

Allows researchers to view specific program content through their portal.
