Bug Bounty Program

WalkMe will pay qualified security researchers, who have been registered to the Bounty Program subject to the criteria indicated below, a bounty for each confirmed security vulnerability as such term is defined below, provided that payment is not prohibited by law. We will pay rewards when the security vulnerability submitted is both previously unknown to WalkMe, and that in WalkMe’s sole discretion, such vulnerability may have an adverse impact on the level of security of the services provided by WalkMe (“Confirmed Security Vulnerability”).

Please note that your participation in the Bounty Program is voluntary and is subject to the conditions set forth herein (“Program Terms”). By registering to this Bounty Program, you acknowledge that you have read and agreed to these program terms.

Registration:

WalkMe manages its bug bounty via a private program on the BugCrowd platform, where testers with the relevant skills are selected amongst the top-tier hackers on the platform.

If you believe that you’ve found a security vulnerability and would like to report it to us, or if you have the relevant skill set and would like to join our bug bounty program, please register on the BugCrowd platform (registration is free) and send a request to security@walkme.com to be invited to our program.

Make sure to include the email with which you registered on the BugCrowd platform in your request!
