Bug Bounty Submission → Validation → Reward Tracking
Automate the bug bounty management process from submission intake to validation and reward distribution for security programs.
Workflow Steps
Google Forms
Collect bug bounty submissions
Create a structured Google Form for researchers to submit vulnerability reports, including fields for vulnerability type, severity, proof-of-concept, affected systems, and contact information.
Zapier
Parse submission and create Airtable record
Set up a Zapier automation that triggers on new form submissions, extracts the data, and creates a new record in Airtable with status 'Under Review' and assigns a unique ticket ID.
Airtable
Track validation workflow
Configure an Airtable base with fields for submission details, validation status, severity assessment, reproduction steps, fix timeline, and reward amount. Include views for different team members and status tracking.
Gmail
Send automated acknowledgment
Use Zapier to automatically send an acknowledgment email to the researcher with their ticket ID, expected timeline for review, and program guidelines for follow-up communication.
Zapier
Trigger reward payment notification
Create a second Zapier automation that monitors Airtable for status changes to 'Validated' and automatically sends reward payment instructions to both the researcher and finance team.
