Bugcrowd launched its first "Proof of Concept" bug bounty in 2015, offering a $500 USD reward pool and recognition as a leader in the bug bounty space. The platform has since grown to become one of the largest crowdsourced security platforms, with hundreds of thousands of hackers on board, over 1200 programs run, and more than 300,000 vulnerabilities submitted. Bugcrowd's latest product, Attack Surface Management, leverages the creativity and power of the crowd to help organizations think about security at scale. The platform has surpassed $1.6 million in payouts to over 550 hackers last month, with a wide acceptance of crowdsourced security as an essential layer in the security stack.
