Additionally, we would also like to thank industry partners for helping Adobe build resiliency in our products: 

  • Mat Powell working with Trend Micro Zero Day Initiative (ZDI)
Note:

The next Hall of Fame winners will be announced at the conclusion of the current testing period, which spans one year. Mark your calendars—the update is scheduled for November 30th, 2025. Thank you for your continued contributions and dedication!

What is it? 

The Researcher Hall of Fame initiative provides an opportunity to recognize and celebrate the most impactful security researchers who have demonstrated tremendous dedication to their craft and helped strengthen protections for our products, services, and customers. 

We welcome all security researchers, ranging from hobbyists to full-time ethical hackers, to participate in the Security Researcher Hall of Fame by submitting a report to Adobe's Bug Bounty Program (more info here).

How does it work?

Researcher Points will be awarded for each valid submission on Adobe's Bug Bounty Program. Researcher points will accumulate for a final score calculated at the end of each testing period. To help ensure an equal opportunity for all, Researcher Points will reset at the beginning of each testing period. 

Scoring Process

Any valid and unique submission reported to Adobe's bug bounty program will be awarded Hall of Fame points based on the below table. Adobe's standard policy scope and exclusions apply.
