Summary

The Fitbit Security Team has been awarded two Buggy Awards from Budgrowd, recognizing their "Best Response Time" and "Program of the Year". The team started its bug bounty program about 18 months ago and aimed to treat the security community with respect and gratitude. They achieved this by setting up processes that ensured timely response times and clear communication, which was key to receiving the "Best Response Time" award. The team also received the "Program of the Year" award for balancing resource investment, modifying scope over time, and adding value to their security efforts. By including crowdsourced security in their comprehensive program, Fitbit has experienced fruitful results and is now looking forward to continuing to work with the security community and serving as a model for other teams.
