Scouting report
One of the seven L0pht members who testified to the Senate in 1998. Spent the following decades turning ad-hoc bug reporting into a process the industry could live with, then co-founded Veracode to make application security something you can actually buy.
Curator’s note
Half the reason a vendor takes your bug report seriously today.
