Leveraging Bug Bounty Expertise

Many of our consultants are actively engaged in public and private bug bounty programs for brands like Amazon, Twitter, Facebook, Google, Uber, LinkedIn, the U.S. Department of Defense and others. These are often seasoned and extremely hardened systems and applications, yet our consultants discover and report high impact flaws in these companies on a regular basis. We are leveraging our bug bounty expertise on hardened systems and applications in our Penetration Testing methodology.
