Putsi, a professional video game programmer turned information security specialist, has been actively involved in bug bounty programs for several years, with a significant presence on Bugcrowd, having recently entered the top 40 on the platform. Putsi's journey into security research began accidentally when they landed an internship position through their software engineering internship search, and they have since submitted over 100 bugs to Bugcrowd and various independent bounties. They focus on a range of vulnerabilities including RCE, privilege escalation, authentication bypass, and SQLi, and are motivated by the challenge and unpredictability of hacking, as well as the opportunity to learn new skills and contribute to making the internet a safer place. Putsi offers several tips for other bounty hunters, including the importance of continuous learning, persistence, and following the infosec community on social media platforms like Twitter and Reddit. They predict that bug bounties will become more popular in the future, potentially taking resources away from traditional penetration testing, as companies prioritize security and bugs become harder to find.
