How Hacker-Powered Security Protects Your Data, Even When Third Parties Don't

Providing third parties with access to privileged sites and information can expose companies to greater risk of data theft, with all the financial and reputational costs such breaches bring. Hacker-powered security programs like HackerOne Bounty let you focus tens to thousands of security researchers on the precise systems you care about most. Through careful design of the program page and bounty table, which tells hackers how much they will be paid to find different types of vulnerabilities in different systems, you can concentrate the HackerOne community on hardening the applications, authentication, and access control systems that third parties use.

Five years of the GitHub Bug Bounty program

Over the past five years, GitHub has been continuously impressed by the hard work and ingenuity of the hacker community. Last year was no different.

They decided to share some of their highlights from the past year and introduce some big changes in 2019: full legal protection for researchers, more GitHub properties eligible for rewards, and increased reward amounts.
