MongoDB has announced two significant updates to strengthen its security posture: expanding its public bug bounty program to include the free tier of MongoDB Atlas and partnering with GitHub to detect credential leaks faster. The inclusion of MongoDB Atlas in the bug bounty program enables continuous, real-world testing by a diverse security research community, systems designed for faster detection of vulnerabilities, and stronger confidence in MongoDB's ability to safeguard sensitive data. Through its partnership with GitHub, MongoDB can quickly identify potential security risks related to exposed credentials and notify customers, reducing the risk of unauthorized access or data leaks. These updates reflect a broader commitment to helping developers and organizations build secure applications, detect risks early, and respond quickly to new and emerging threats.
