LinkedIn will continue a bug bounty program that pays out to a closed group of security researchers,reports PC World, claiming that an invite-only approach reduces the number of irrelevant reports.
Writing on the LinkedIn blog, the company’s director of information security Cory Scott said that the program was started in October 2014, and has already paid out $65,000 for more than 65 ‘actionable bugs’. The team of researchers are hand-picked and invited by the company to join the team, working closely with its own security experts.
