Episode Description
In this episode we dig into the proactive measures of ensuring software quality and resilience to attacks by enlisting friendly forces to look for weaknesses in your environment and applications. Find a problem in the wild – an exploitation waiting to happen in your running production systems – is incredibly costly when you are not in control. Don’t let external actors compromise your business and the trust other put in you - step up your game by hunting on your own terms before you become the target and your information / customers the victim. We will explain what a bug-bounty program is, why it is so valuable, and how you can setup one in your shop.
