Bug Bounty Note Structure

This note explains how I organize my bug bounty work to stay focused, avoid overwhelm, and maintain consistency. The goal is deep understanding of the target, clear tracking of progress, and efficient reporting.

Why Note?​

  • Reduce mental overload
  • Focus on one target at a time
  • Track progress daily
  • Build deep product understanding
  • Store ideas and assumptions
  • Avoid repeating work
  • Make reporting faster

Folder hierarchy​

Each target has its own folder inside the main bug bounty directory.

bugbounty/
  target-name/

Inside each target:

target-name/
  00-overview.md
  Recon/
