Episode 30: Recon Legend Shubs - From Burgers to Bounties

Episode 30: In this episode of Critical Thinking - Bug Bounty Podcast, we're thrilled to be joined by renowned bug bounty hunter Shubs. We kick off with him sharing his journey from burgers to bugs, and how his friendly rivalry with a fellow hacker fueled his passion for reconnaissance, as well as his love of collaboration. We then shift gears to talk about the art of debugging, ethics and economics of bug bounty hunting, the transition to Entrepreneur, and the evolution of Assetnote from a reconnaissance tool to enterprise security software suite. This one’s a banger, and we don’t want you to miss it!
