AI Slop Is Turning Bug Bounty Programs Into A Security Liability
Ido Geffen, CEO and Co-founder, Novee Security. Bug bounty programs have traditionally relied on human researchers to identify cybersecurity vulnerabilities, with submission volumes that security teams could generally manage. There were always strong reports and weak ones, but the weaker submissions were often easy to spot.

Simpson Strong-Tie, a top manufacturer of construction fasteners and part of the S&P 400, reached a point where annual pentests couldn't keep pace with its expanding digital footprint and growing use of AI agents. Seeking a stronger way to assess its security posture, as well as defensible assurance that its applications and the AI systems inside them could stand up to real attacker techniques, the company turned to Novee Security and its continuous, AI-driven pentesting.
