GitHub's Greg Ose on h1-702 2018's Importance
Greg Ose, Senior App Sec Manager, for GitHub sat down with us to talk about his experience at h1-702 2018. Here's some highlights from the event: "A great experience to have this group of really talented hackers in a room and have high bandwidth conversations with them." "It's been really surprising the breadth of vulnerabilities that are being found tonight." On their experience working with HackerOne: "The actual technicalities of running a program tripped us up. It was moving to something 1. that was easier to us and 2. being able to pull in the community." "Running the bug bounty program on HackerOne is a great way for us to do events like we're doing here. We are vying for the attention and engagement from the bug bounty community as a whole. How are we going to draw interest to our program? The better submissions we have, the more submissions we have, and it's really useful. I think HackerOne provides that community." "It's not just about engagement and communication with the hackers tonight. We're really hoping that after meeting us, after working with us live at the event, we'll have those hackers return to our program on HackerOne."
