Bugcrowd works closely with security teams to run a successful and mutually beneficial bug bounty program by breaking it down into three main stages: planning and strategy, launching and running the program, and learning from and iterating upon it. The process is continuous and involves recommendations and heavy lifting, as Bugcrowd takes care of much of the work involved in setting up a bug bounty program. A deep dive into each stage will be explored, including how to integrate a bug bounty into the security development lifecycle.
