Casey Ellis
[Bugcrowd]
Casey is the Chairman, Founder, and CTO of Bugcrowd, and co-founder of The disclose.io Project.
He is a 20+ year veteran of information security as a career, and has been inventing stuff and generally getting technology to do things it isn't supposed to since childhood.
Professionally, he has worn a variety of hats, working as a pentester, security and risk consultant and solutions architect, CSO, and then most recently as a career entrepreneur and company leader. Casey pioneered the Crowdsourced Security as a Service model, launching the first bug bounty programs on the Bugcrowd platform in 2012, and co-founded the disclose.io vulnerability disclosure standardization project in 2014.
Casey is a sought-after industry visionary, media commentator, and public speaker, and has presented at DEF CON, Black Hat USA, RSA Conference, Techcrunch DISRUPT, Shmoocon, ENISA Incibe, Usenix ENIGMA, Derbycon, SOURCEConf, AISA, AusCERT, and others.
Inside The Unlikely Romance - Crowdsourced Security from a Financial Services Perspective
It has been 20 years since Rainforest Puppy released the RFPolicy responsible disclosure policy, 11 years since Google and Facebook brought the concept of bug bounty into the eye of the security industry, and 9 years since Bugcrowd pioneered the concept of inserting a platform in the process to facilitate conversations between builders and breakers in order to level the skill and resourcing playing field against our adversaries.
So, how's it all going? Did it all turn out to be a "tech company" thing? What have the results, and the impact on cybersecurity defense been on more traditionally conservative industries, like financial services? What can the history of the relationship between helpful hackers and organizations tell us about what we'll need for the future?
In this talk, Casey Ellis (Founder, Chairman, and CTO of Bugcrowd) will unpack some salient lessons after nearly 10 years building Bugcrowd.
