SoundCloud has launched its public bug bounty program with Bugcrowd, the #1 crowdsourced security platform. The company is committed to keeping its community and content safe, particularly given its unique set of security issues related to processing user-generated content and detecting malware distribution. As a leading audio streaming platform, SoundCloud is focused on building state-of-the-art security monitoring and protection solutions while also improving efficiency in handling vulnerability reports. With Bugcrowd's community-driven testing, the company has seen several benefits including a lowered barrier to reporting vulnerabilities, increased quality in reports, dedicated time to focus on specific services, known platforms with clear processes, and increased confidence in addressing critical issues.
