Summary
LaunchDarkly has launched a public bug bounty program with HackerOne to improve its security by crowdsourcing the discovery and reporting of vulnerabilities in exchange for compensation. The company's Director of Security, Alex Smolen, believes that setting up such a program is easier than ever due to services like HackerOne, which handle communication, coordination, and payouts. LaunchDarkly plans to keep its bug bounty program running indefinitely while raising payouts as security improves and flaws become harder to find.
