Bug Bounty January 2025 Update

[#1]

At the start of each quarter, we publish a roll-up report from each of our Bug Bounty programs to give our customers a view of the progress of the program and the vulnerabilities. For many customers, these reports can take the place of a penetration test report and show that we are actively testing and identifying any security issues that are in our products or services.

Our bug bounty program serves as an extension of our own team, providing continuous monitoring and testing for potential vulnerabilities. We believe that this comprehensive approach provides superior value when combined with targeted penetration tests that are also performed (we post updated Letters of Assessment for each product’s penetration test on our https://www.atlassian.com/trust/security/security-testing, at the bottom of the page).

Bug Bounty Stats for the Quarter

In the October 2024 to December 2024 quarter, we had 356 individual security researchers contribute to our bug bounty program, submitting a total of 810 bugs for review, with a total of 200 valid bugs, which is an average of ~26.7%% valid bug to noise ratio (with a low of 11% valid bug to noise ratio in our Loom program and a high of 56% valid bug to noise ratio in our Jira Align program) across all of our independent bug bounty programs.

Compared to the July 2024 to September 2024 quarter, we had a 13% increase in security researchers, 24% increase in bugs submitted for review, and a 21% increase in valid bugs, with a lower bug-to-noise ratio by ~5%.

Atlassian’s Security Testing Updates

The Security Testing team continues to work closely with cyber security consultancies to conduct thorough penetration tests on Atlassian products.

This approach ensures that Atlassian's products and services undergo rigorous testing and evaluation. By combining the bug bounty program with the efforts by our security testing team, Atlassian can leverage the expertise of external researchers while also maintaining a proactive and comprehensive security posture.
