How to Answer Security PM Interview Questions on Bug Bounties & Audits
I’m preparing for Security Program Manager interviews in the blockchain industry, and I often see job descriptions mentioning “managing bug bounties and audits.”
If this comes up in an interview, how do I explain it in a way that shows I understand the real bug bounty and audit process, not just theory?
Should I focus on how to scope the bounty program or security audit, which severity model (CVSS or blockchain-specific) to use, how to talk about vendor management when working with audit firms or bounty platforms, and whether to include retests and follow-up audits?
For those who’ve actually managed this in blockchain or security PM roles, what’s the best way to answer so it sounds practical and interview-ready?
