Compass Security Bug Bounty Service is a managed bug bounty program that connects organizations with independent security researchers to identify vulnerabilities across their digital assets on a continuous basis. The service is positioned as a complement to periodic penetration testing, particularly suited for agile software development environments, monitoring non-critical updates, and establishing an ongoing security mindset. Researchers are compensated only for valid, confirmed vulnerabilities ("pay-per-bug" model), covering assets such as web applications, mobile applications, APIs, network infrastructure, and various programming languages. Compass Security manages the full program lifecycle, including: - Defining the scope and categorizing assets - Setting participation guidelines and bounty amounts - Triaging and filtering reports (duplicate and false positive detection) - Verifying reproducibility and quality of submissions - Confirming vulnerability criticality - Retesting resolved vulnerabilities - Managing bounty pay-outs - Ensuring compliance with program policies and regulatory frameworks Vulnerability reports include detailed descriptions, reproducible exploitation steps, and remediation suggestions. Compass Security collaborates with clients on vulnerability assessment and remediation recommendations. The service draws on 25 years of penetration testing experience. Bug hunters operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, providing continuous coverage across a broad range of IT technologies.
