Summary

Cyber criminals are constantly finding new ways to break into websites, putting personal information at risk. Businesses like SEEK have implemented a Vulnerability Disclosure Program to protect customer data, which has evolved over the years and now includes a Bug Bounty Program that offers monetary rewards for security vulnerabilities reported by top researchers from around the world. The program has been successful so far, with hundreds of valid vulnerabilities reported and over $100,000 USD in rewards given out. Now, the company is taking its program public, allowing anyone to sign up and start testing their websites, as part of a broader effort to ensure the security of their online services.
