EVENT DETAILS
With data breaches & cyberattacks making headlines around the world, companies are realizing that it's no longer if their vulnerabilities will be exposed, but when. As a result, they are turning to the ethical hacker community to help find security holes before cybercriminals are able to exploit them.

These defenders of the web are contributing to the cultural shift that has taken hackers from being seen as villains to being positioned as an asset for today's leading organizations.


HackerOne's CTO, Michiel Prins, sits down with a panel of ethical hackers for a discussion on hacker evolution & insights into what motivates a hacker, how they think, & common security mistakes startups often make. The panel will answer questions on how to get the most out of a hacker-powered security program & considerations to make before inviting hackers to test your security landscape.

Drinks & networking to follow.
