Things that deserve a red card: you ignoring this post.  Everyone's favorite time of the year is almost here and we've got things lined up all week long.  🎩 Start your trip by swinging past Booth 5532 at Black Hat USA to talk proactive security and grab the iconic stickers.  🐝 When the business hall clears out on August 6th, skip the networking dinners and meet us at The Hive for speaker panels, book signings, and a competitive round of indoor mini-golf.  🪲 To top it all off, we're heading straight into DEF CON to sponsor Bug Bounty Village, DEF CON.  We just planned your entire week for you, you're welcome 😇 Register for what you're feeling here: bugcrowd.com/the-hive/

AI has scaled external recon and app discovery, but internal tradecraft remains deeply human. 🧍 This imbalance is exactly why organizations are drowning in a flood of valid, external vulnerability reports. 🙅🏽‍♂️ Defending against this volume means changing how you prioritize. Attackers don't just look for isolated high-severity exploits; they collect situational awareness and use lower-tier findings to stitch together a full attack path. Learn the four tiers of attacker decision-making and how to layer human intelligence over machine noise: bugcrowd.com/blog/the-ai-sl… Watch the 20-minute breakdown with with Julian Brownlow Davies and Alistair G. here: youtube.com/watch?v=TmPsNo…

Bug bounty strategy that can land you MORE bugs. 👇

The most common public sector security failure is a simple oversight. When massive portals share infrastructure, data accountability easily slips through the cracks. The fix is complete asset inventory visibility and a trusted channel to report flaws before adversaries find them. As Bugcrowd’s Chief Strategy and Trust Officer, Trey Ford, points out: "The job to be done is owning access control across the entire inventory of public-facing assets and treating coordinated disclosure as defensive infrastructure."

As adversaries weaponize AI, cybersecurity training is no longer a professional development perk, it's an absolute requirement for operational readiness ‼️ "The budget investments aren't generosity; they're a calculated response to watching adversaries gain capabilities faster than human learning curves can match," notes Trey Ford, Chief Strategy and Trust Officer at Bugcrowd. "Boards are seeing the cost of not training show up in incident response budgets and breach disclosures." Read the full Dice Insights piece: dice.com/career-advice/…
