This is why we keep having breaches. 20 days for $1k a piece? (yeah, yeah... i know they could have worked 2 minutes of the 20 days...)
But for real why are companies' bounties so low? Those breaches could have cost millions.
- cptskippy 8y agoI would guess that a breach is a write off or covered by insurance where as a bounty probably comes out of someone's budget.
- ghostbrainalpha 8y agoThe payouts aren't evenly distributed. A lot of the "hackers" are students and dropouts doing this to have something great on their resume. This guy got $9,000 in 20 days apparently. https://twitter.com/ratherbeonline https://twitter.com/ratherbeonline
