During the past year, the Bugcrowd bug bounty platform has seen a tremendous growth when it comes bug bounty payouts, but also in terms of the enterprises that signed up for its service.
The company has recently published its annual State of the Bug Bounty report, and according to statistics gathered since the service started back in 2013, the company ran 286 total bug bounty programs, received 54,114 bug submissions, and paid researchers $2,054,721 for 6,803 accepted reports.
Surprisingly, 63 percent of all the bug bounty programs ran on the platform have been private programs, where only invited researchers were able to submit bug reports.
