The Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council has established data security standards to protect consumers and organizations from data breaches, which can be debilitating for customers and costly for organizations. To meet these requirements, crowdsourced solutions like bug bounty programs have been found effective in identifying vulnerabilities and reporting them to organizations before malicious actors can exploit them. These programs offer a cost-effective way to improve an organization's security posture while meeting compliance requirements, such as PCI-DSS. By partnering with experienced partners, organizations can develop a comprehensive security strategy tailored to their specific needs, scale, and objectives.
