Online community platform Reddit is to launch a public-facing bug bounty programme through ethical hacking specialists HackerOne, after running a successful three-year private programme.
Throughout its history, Reddit has utilised the expertise of its diverse communities in many ways, and when it comes to cyber security, it has often relied on the security community to help find and fix bugs in its platform. It has even recruited some of them internally.

Reddit announced Wednesday that it is taking its bug bounty program public. The popular social news site and community forum platform has run a private program with HackerOne for the past three years, but hopes that by going public, it can more quickly address vulnerabilities, improve its defenses and keep the platform secure.
âWeâve seen great engagement and success to date, having awarded $140,000 in bounties across 300 reports covering the main reddit.com platform, which worked well for our limited scope during the private program,â the company said in a press release. âWith our continued growth and visibility, weâre now ready to make the program public and expand participation to anyone wanting to make a meaningful security impact on Reddit.â
