Setting up a bug bounty programme in your organization

Organizations of various sizes have been putting together and hosting bug bounties over the years. Some of these are very popular - participants look forward to the event on their calendars. Others, not so much.

The “hit or miss” nature of these events are sometimes a deterrent for any new business thinking about hosting a bug bounty. And yet, it is somewhat easy to plan for success - using playbook-like approaches and strong ownership of the process.

Rootconf invited showrunners of some of the most successful bug bounties to share insights, secrets and tips which will help any business to get started with this approach. Blending talks, how-to’s and panel discussions - this is the one stop shop for how to “get started with bug bounties” that you were looking forward to.

Browse through the blog posts and videos to learn how organizations such as Flipkart, Razorpay and InVideo have thought about and implemented bug bounty programmes.

Participate in the conference to share your work and learn from peers.
