Understanding Bug Bounty Programs and How Does it Benefit Organizations

The Cybersecurity Researchers popularly known as White Hat Hackers or the ethical hackers, who find and report vulnerabilities in IT /Internet based systems have become a significant role player in today’s day to day life.
Although the energies and the unconventional skill of these Security Researchers help raise the IT / internet security systems, their participation needs to be carefully monitored and managed to achieve the desired results. Carefully thought out Bug Bounty Programs are paramount importance to rollout this goal. Therefore, a bug bounty is a reward paid to hackers who have found and reported a weakness or vulnerability within an organization’s system(s). This reward may be a cash or in-kind reward or recognition of another kind.
It is very important to pay a significant attention that Hackers who report these vulnerabilities to organizations are never to be considered as cybercriminals, but collaborative members of an organization’s security system.
