Hi all, late introduction from me.
From Malaysia, you guys can call me Yap, that’s why my handler is @yappare . It’s a long story why I used yappare, and please dont ask LOL.
Not coming from IT background, but get involved with hacking scene since 2008, started work as a pentester on 2010. Still lot of things need to learn as from the daily projects, the scope quite limited, that’s the reason I joined Bugcrowd on 2013 and since that lot of things I learn. Bugcrowd is my first bounty platform and really help me to get more knowledge in pentesting.
Yeah, still doesn’t have any professional certificate until today and hope one day would able to attent security conference,security training and meet with all of you
Hi myself tanaya,a tester with 7 yrs of industry exp.Got to know of this bug crowd program and i am now kind of hooked into it.I have lots of questions coming in as i am pretty much new in this kind of testing .I recently shifted from India (bangalore) to bay area .As i have a active toddler to look after so this program kind of interested me as i can devote my time from home.
To giv a short backgrownd i was a dev in the first 2 yrs as i joined IT after doing my engg.Then i was given a chance to do some testing on the final stages of a proj from then onwards no looking backwards.
I have kind of done api testing but never did cross site scripting/penetration testing.Hope to learn it from this community.
A great community ,looking fwd to learn mny things from u guys.

Hey, my name is Sam Becker I am an aspiring security researcher currently studying Comp Sci and Information assurance. I have managed to successfully report a small number of vulnerabilities to some sites with bug bounties (Haven’t won a bounty yet but got some cool shirts! haha) and got my name on the Microsoft hall of fame!
I hope to expand my knowlege of web application penetration testing as it is a fun pass-time for me although it can be VERY frustrating at times…
Anyways, I hope to learn more from you guys on the forum, see you around!

Hi all, my name’s Jason. I am actually not from a formal IT background. I am a Nurse by day and white hat by night. I have always had a love of systems, biological or computational, and grew up solving puzzles as a passtime. I am proficient in several programming languages, including C++, Javascipt, python, and HTML. I am relatively new to hacking as I have spent most of my time building applications rather than testing them. However, I am now fairly comfortable with nmap and most of the kali tools and am learning fairly quickly. Cheers.
Hi everyone,
I’m Alejo Popovici (apok) and I’m actually just starting as a freelancer security researcher for everything that is out there. Prior to this I worked for Deloitte Argentina, on Luciano Martin’s and Walter Riveros’ team, where I learned a lot, since both them and everyone that works there are awesome people. But, even though I’m greatful for the opportunity they’ve given me, I want to expand my knowledge on crowd-funded bug bounty programs. So I hope that we can work together towards greater challenges on vulnerability findings.
I’m sure we’ll see a lot of each other.
Kind Regards,
Alex.
