RivuDon, a security researcher, bug hunter and ethical hacker, describes how they won swag and Hall of Fame recognition for finding bugs in a program.
They saw a target on LinkedIn that offered Hall of Fame recognition and decided to investigate it.
After conducting research and discovering a vulnerability, they reported it to the program’s team and provided proof of their finding.
The team acknowledged RivuDon’s discovery and rewarded them with swag and Hall of Fame recognition.
They encouraged others to follow suit responsibly and ethically, and to leverage social media and networking platforms like LinkedIn to discover potential targets.
RivuDon stresses that bug hunting can be rewarding both monetarily and recognition-wise, and that it’s a great career path for those interested in cybersecurity.
