Comprehensive ethical hacking bug bounty course to teach you some of the essentials from scratch.
Description
Bug bounty programs authorize independent security experts to report bugs to a company in exchange for rewards or compensation. These bugs can include security exploits, vulnerabilities, process issues, hardware flaws, etc.
The reports of detected bugs are typically made through programs that are run by independent third parties. These kinds of programs are primarily curated for a company’s requirements.
The program may be public where anyone can sign up; they may also be private or invite-only for confidentiality purposes. The program can take place over a set duration or, commonly, with no end date.
