Bugcrowd has had a busy summer. Recently, the bug bounty company partnered with HP to launch the first-ever bug bounty program for printers, with rewards of up to $10,000 for discovered vulnerabilities.

Bugcrowd also recently announced Disclose.io, an open-sourced project to standardize best practices for providing a safe harbor for security researchers within bug bounty and vulnerability disclosure programs (VDPs).

 Threatpost talked to Casey Ellis, Bugcrowd founder and CTO, about big trends in bug bounty programs.
