More and more organizations are starting to use bug bounties to encourage reporting of what are often security-related bugs, and in general help improve the quality of their software. To support these programs, companies like HackerOne and BugCrowd can help organizations manage this process more easily. We have limited experience with these offerings ourselves, but we like the idea of encouraging people to help come forward and highlight what can often be damaging vulnerabilities in an open and transparent way.
