Summary

Ibotta has expanded its partnership with Bugcrowd to improve its security strategy and protect user accounts through crowdsourced vulnerability testing. This partnership supports the company's core values of integrity and out hustle by leveraging the skills of over 60,000 trusted security researchers. Ibotta uses Bugcrowd's private bug bounty program to identify and patch potential exploits in its codebase, allowing it to maintain speed while prioritizing user security. The partnership has shown immediate results, with previous one-time programs finding exploitable vulnerabilities that were rapidly patched, and ongoing programs providing a fresh set of eyes on the company's security issues every week.
