Episode 34: Program vs Hacker Debate

Episode 34: In this episode of Critical Thinking - Bug Bounty Podcast, Justin and Joel have both beaten COVID and now square off against each other in a mega-debate representing hackers and program managers respectively. Among the topics included are Disclosures, Dupes, Zero-Day Policy, payouts, budgets, Triage and Retesting. So, if you want blood-pumping, insult-hurling opinion-invalidating debate…then maybe look somewhere else. But if a thought-provoking discussion about bug bounty is more your style, then take a seat and get ready!
