Up to $100,000 per Bounty in Forta’s Official Bug Bounty Program

Article by Forta Network Jun. 28, 2022

Today, the Forta Foundation announces an official bug bounty program with Immunefi, aimed at further enhancing the integrity and security of the Network.

Supporting seven chains and monitoring thousands of critical transactions, the Forta community relies on the network to provide critical alerts in real time, essential for security and operations. By establishing an effective bug bounty program, the Forta Network will better safeguard its own  security while securing its position as the de facto choice for on-chain monitoring.

Forta is a real-time detection network for security & operational monitoring of blockchain activity. Forta’s mission is to monitor all transactions and protect all assets in Web3 and fulfill protocol’s security monitoring needs.   


Immunefi Bug Bounty Program

Bug bounty programs offer a proven and effective way for projects to maintain security while scaling. This program with Immunefi, the leading DeFi bug bounty platform, establishes Forta’s first formal bug bounty program with up to $100,000 per bounty. Read more about payout thresholds, prioritized vulnerabilities, and Immunefi’s threat classification levels on the program’s official page.

“We are proud to serve as the official platform for Forta’s bug bounty program. The notion of providing real-time monitoring is a critical aspect of on-chain infrastructure that the space had not yet addressed. We couldn’t be happier to be making Web3 a safer place, together.” Mitchell Amador CEO and Founder of Immunefi
