10 YEARS OF BUG BOUNTIES

In 2013 bug bounty programs were just starting out, and very few companies and researchers were involved. The popularity of these programs exploded over the following years, with thousands of companies and researchers now participating. This talk will be about my experiences over the last 10 years as one of the top researchers on several bug bounty platforms.

Bug bounty history, memorable events, and some of my favourite vulnerability findings will be included!
