We invite you to participate in Security Meet Up December 4

We invite experienced and novice bug-hunters, as well as experts in the field of Internet security to take part in the Security Meet Up, which will be held on December 4, 2014 at the Mail.Ru Group office with the information support of Hacker magazine and SecurityLab.Ru portal. The theme of the meeting will be the practice of conducting bug bounties programs.

To date, programs for the payment of awards for the detection of problems in the safety of projects there are many IT-companies. “Hunting for mistakes” is a truly effective protection mechanism when the users themselves are involved in the company's security process, and the company demonstrates its readiness to “respond with money”.
