Hack the Pentagon: White hats discovered more than 100 vulnerabilities in Pentagon infrastructure as part of a bug program bounty.
In Hack the Pentagon bug bounty συμμετείχαν γύρω στους 1.400 hackers. Το program distributed $14.000 for disclosures of various vulnerabilities.
US Defense Secretary Ashton Carter said at a Defense One conference held in Washington DC on Friday that bug bounty reduced the cost of detecting vulnerabilities.
"They help us be safer at a lower cost," Carter said.
So, as the Pentagon seems to have managed with little money to further enhance its digital defenses and national security in general.
Hackers of bugs had to be checked before they were allowed to violate Pentagon systems, and particularly sensitive segments were left out of bug bounty.
Carter also revealed in a speech that the Pentagon will seek to monitor top IT in information security and give top positions to the army.
