Southeast Asian e-commerce platform Lazada on Thursday announced the launch of a public bug bounty program with YesWeHack.
Since January 2020, the Alibaba-owned platform has been running a private bug bounty program that resulted in more than $150,000 being paid out in bug bounty rewards.
To further support the discovery of security vulnerabilities in its IT environment, Lazada is now opening the bug bounty program to YesWeHack's entire community of approximately 23,000 ethical hackers.
Researchers interested in participating in the public bug bounty program could earn payouts of up to $10,000 for their findings, the company announced.
"Participants are permitted to perform any tests and investigations on the systems, as long as they act in good faith and respect the scope and rules," the bug bounty program's page on YesWeHack said.
Interested researchers are encouraged to head over to the YesWeHack portal for additional information on the bug bounty program, including guidelines, vulnerability submission requirements, rewards, and more.
