Prelanzamiento, alcance, pago, plataforma.
Evaluación de madurez
Whether you should run a bug bounty at all, or a VDP first. What needs cleaning up before you invite hackers — known issues, exposed staging, missing SBOM, weak RBAC.
Redacción del alcance
Asset list, in-scope categories, out-of-scope categories, account provisioning, test data. The scope document hackers actually read before they submit.
Estructura de pago
Severity bands tied to your business impact rather than a generic CVSS table. Reasonable minima for low/medium, real money for critical. Bonus structures for first-finder of new classes.
Transición VDP → BB
Already running a vulnerability disclosure programme? Move to paid bounty without breaking the trust you built with the researchers already submitting.
Selección de plataforma
HackerOne, Bugcrowd, Intigriti, interno.
No referral fees. No platform allegiance. The choice depends on your researcher mix (HackerOne for breadth, Intigriti for EU-resident researchers, Bugcrowd for managed depth), your compliance posture, and whether your legal team can stomach a US data-residency platform.
In-house is a real option once you exceed ~$20k/month in payouts — the platform fees start to matter. I have built one. The tradeoff is researcher trust: a fresh in-house programme starts at zero.
Entregable
Documentos de programa listos para usar.
