Priority and Reward Guidelines

The Arlo Product Security team, at their sole discretion, determines the nature and impact of the vulnerabilities disclosed including, but not limited to, leveraging CVSS rating methodology to identify the appropriate payouts.

The first valid submission to alert Arlo of a previously unknown issue qualifies for reward. Arlo builds products using a common platform and framework. Multiple products sometimes inherit the same vulnerability. When determining bounty awards, Arlo grants a single award that accounts for all affected products.

Every calendar quarter Arlo gives awayArlo Pro 2s to the first 10 valid P1 findings and Arlo Security Lights to the first 10 valid P2 or P3 findings as a bonus.
