Introduction
The CoinEx Security Bounty aims to provide global users with a secure, stable and efficient digital currency trading platform. The Program is divided into three levels from L1 to L3 according to the threat degree of potential vulnerabilities, with up to 5,000 USDT as a reward to encourage more users and white hat hackers to discover and report security vulnerabilities. The domain name is *.coinex.com.
Basic Principles
1) CoinEx attaches great importance to the safety of its products and business. CoinEx promises that each reported problem will be followed up, analyzed, dealt with and responded timely.
2) CoinEx may need the help of the reporter when following up the problem, and may require the reporter to reproduce the problem to ensure effective follow-up.
3) CoinEx highlights the responsible vulnerability disclosure and handling process, and promises to give reward and thanks to every user who adheres to the spirit of the white hat hacker, protects users’ interests, and helps CoinEx improve the security quality.
4) CoinEx opposes and condemns all hacking activities that use vulnerability testing as an excuse to damage and harm users’ interests, including but not limited to exploiting vulnerabilities to steal users’ privacy and virtual property, invading business systems, stealing user data, and maliciously spreading vulnerabilities.
5) CoinEx opposes and condemns all acts of using security vulnerabilities to intimidate users and attack competitors.

FAQ
Q: Will CoinEx disclose the information related to the vulnerability report?
A: In order to protect users’ interests and privacy, the report-related information will not be made public.
Q: Does the CoinEx Security Bounty use rewards to conceal security issues?
A: No. First of all, CoinEx believes that related information should not be disclosed in order to protect users’ interests and privacy, which is also a common practice in the industry. Secondly, the rewards from CoinEx are to express gratitude and respect to the reporters, instead of concealing security issues.
Q: Will CoinEx “ignore” the vulnerability and then secretly fix it?
A: Absolutely not. Once the “vulnerability” submitted by the reporter enters the “ignored” state, the relative staff will explain the reason in the report feedback. The common situation is that this "vulnerability" is not considered a vulnerability and is evaluated as a BUG, but in any case, CoinEx will not “secretly fix the vulnerability.”
