hackerone.com loaded normally in a mobile browser from Syria, showing the home page and its navigation.

Sign-upWorksUnchanged since:

Tested from Syria: a HackerOne researcher account created from Syria was active, and its profile showed it had joined in July 2026.

Sign-inWorksUnchanged since:

Tested from Syria: the tester was signed in to their own HackerOne account and could open its profile and settings pages. Recorded from the same test as sign-up and core use, without a separate screenshot.

Identity verification (KYC)Not checked
PayoutFailsUnchanged since:

Tested from Syria: setting up a way to receive rewards failed. Syria is missing from the country list when adding a bank account, although the sanctions notice on the payout method page does not name Syria among the restricted countries.

Work at HackerOne? Know someone who does?

Sanctions are lifted. Most companies just haven't updated their policies. A word from inside HackerOne can change that.

Tips for advocating

  • Reach out to legal, compliance, or policy teams.
  • Reference the lifted sanctions.
  • Point to competitors who have already unblocked Syria.

Frequently Asked Questions

Partly. The core use of HackerOne works in Syria, but something else about it fails or has not been checked. This page lists what works and what does not.

Many international services blocked access to Syria due to previous sanctions and compliance policies. Even as sanctions are being reviewed, some companies have not yet restored access. Unblock Syria tracks these services and advocates for change.

You can help by voting on this page to show demand, sharing it on social media, and contacting HackerOne directly to request they restore access for Syrian users.
