There's ALWAYS a bug. Always. The app that everyone & their mom uses? The one that's owned by Megacorp X/Y/Z/whatever? Littered with bugs. The app being developed by engineers making $500k+/yr? Crawling with bugs. The app that's been through 30 pentests? Bugs. Go find them.

I’m well respected in the bug community, but unfortunately bugs don’t live very long so in a month or two I’ll have to earn the bug community’s respect again

Triagers who communicate well throughout the reports, address CVSS concerns, and respond with understanding and kindness really make a difference :)

I don't know why we think the American public, whose base level of health literacy is completely infantile, should be able to make decisions that impact public health.

For those not familiar with the dynamics here, talented cyber folks often choose to work for the U S. gov despite lower pay because of: 1. stability 2. a more direct mission of protecting the public from U.S. adversaries. With both in major flux, there will be talent flight.
.@CISAgov employees are bracing for more cuts this week after losing ~130 people last week. CISA's "going to lose a lot of people," said one person familiar with the matter. "I expect whole divisions [to] be cut. ... Internally there is a lot of fear."

I see we're doing the quarterly open source tools/research debate again. I'll just say this: Phishing got much harder when @mrgretzky released evilnginx AD got more secure after @SpecterOps released Certified Pre-Owned AD got more secure when @TimMedin showed us kerberoasting

A contractor said something during this project which I thought was both compassionate and the sign that he was a skilled professional, and I thought I’d share: Scene: My mother, who has some mobility challenges, is sketching out what she wants in her kitchen. He listens.

At the height of One Million Checkboxes's popularity I thought I'd been hacked. A few hours later I was tearing up, extraordinarily proud of some brilliant teens. A thread about my favorite story from running OMCB....
I made a website. it's called "one million checkboxes dot com". it has one million checkboxes on it. checking a box checks it for everyone. that's it. have fun!

One day, the technique for exploiting this vulnerability will be available. Not today, but one day. Working with other bug hunters makes a huge difference. Two minds bouncing ideas off each other leads to peak efficiency.

Took the plunge and started blogging about bug bounties - my first post is live! AI can be a powerful tool for bug hunting at speed when combined with human intuition. https://t.co/X9V3suyGyk Feedback most welcome!

@NahamSec A small secret in bug bounty, gamification is king. The same report could be $1k or $10k. Learn the program, write good reports, and show impact. Don't assume the people running the program know what you know, show the business impact and wow them.
