Diligent software developers must follow secure development practices, industry standards, and regulatory requirements when handling software vulnerabilities. Handling vulnerabilities is a complex, multi-step process that involves various methods and stages. One effective approach to finding vulnerabilities is through Bug Bounty programs.
Preparing for a Bug Bounty Program
Before launching a Bug Bounty program, a company should already have established processes for identifying vulnerabilities. It is crucial to have experience working with third-party organizations for code and process security audits, commonly known as penetration testing. Having experience with red teaming is even better.
