Hosts: Justin Shelley - Mario Zaki - Bryan Lachapelle - Guest: Grant McCracken - What if the best way to secure your business was to invite hackers to attack it? In this eye-opening episode, ethical hacker Grant McCracken reveals how bug bounty programs are revolutionizing cybersecurity for businesses of all sizes. Grant explains how his company Dark Horse Security makes these powerful security tools accessible and affordable for small businesses - starting at absolutely free for the first 25 vulnerability reports. Discover why traditional penetration testing only scratches the surface, how a major bank found six-figure worth of vulnerabilities overnight when they expanded their scope, and why the bad guys are already looking for your vulnerabilities whether you're testing for them or not. Grant breaks down complex concepts like attack surfaces, vulnerability disclosure programs, and the NIST Cybersecurity Framework in business owner-friendly terms. Key takeaways include identifying if your business needs a bug bounty program, understanding what constitutes an attack surface, and learning how to leverage the crowd-sourced approach to cybersecurity.
