Talk: Pentester's Mindset
Abstract
I will represent multiple case studies to convey the message that if you think limited, you will be limited. Bug bounty approach has degraded the quality of penetration testing, for both the customers as well as the practitioners. It is hard for the customer to differentiate between a good penetration testing and a quick and dirty top-10 or top-25 approach.
