Cover Overview

Who is this for?

Bug Bounty Cover is for DeFi protocol teams running or planning to run bug bounty programs through platforms like Immunefi, Cantina, or Sherlock, who want to offer meaningful bounty sizes without taking on the full financial exposure of a large critical payout.

Why is it useful?

A bug bounty program is only as credible as the bounty behind it. With Bug Bounty Cover, teams can run larger, more credible programs that attract serious researchers, knowing that the mutual absorbs the majority of a critical payout if one is ever triggered.
