# Bug Bounty

Security is a top priority for Kai Finance. Our smart contracts are audited, open source, and continuously monitored — but code is only as strong as the testing it undergoes.

To further strengthen safety, Kai Finance has launched a public **bug bounty program** on [HackenProof](https://hackenproof.com/programs/kai-finance-yield-protocol).

## Scope

The program covers all deployed Kai Finance smart contracts on Sui. Critical vulnerabilities, high-risk findings, and meaningful improvements are eligible for rewards.

## Rewards

* Critical findings: **significant rewards**
* High severity findings: **moderate rewards**
* Other valid submissions: evaluated case by case

Exact payout tiers and details are available on the [HackenProof program page](https://hackenproof.com/programs/kai-finance-yield-protocol)

## Participation

* Review the scope and rules on HackenProof.
* Submit findings directly through their platform.
* Valid submissions are triaged, validated, and rewarded according to severity.

## Why a bug bounty?

* **Transparency:** Open invitation to the security community.
* **Resilience:** More eyes on the code = stronger guarantees.
* **Ecosystem safety:** Protecting users and liquidity across Sui.

If you are a security researcher or white-hat hacker, we encourage you to participate.
