How to dominate in bug bounties

Hello Security Researchers & Hackers

In this article I will talk about the mindset of hacking and how you can achieve a degree of success in bug bounty and maximizing your profit

Most of people ask the questions like , how do I get bounty , how to choose a good program , and a lot of how’s regarding this … while the answer is simple
always choose a program that you’re familiar with a program that you think it may fit your skills for example:

You can choose to hack on a program that contains a lot of old subdomains with PHP on them and focus on one subdomain or two instead of going after something that uses a complex technology something you are not familiar with

By doing that you give yourself more confidence regarding your target and with time and investment bugs will come along

The most critical point that I want to point out is “Stick at one target” doing this will make you more familiar with target technology you will know the assets more than the developers themselves :)

Once you adapt this , you will hack the target , breath the target , hack them while you’re sleeping but thinking how to bypass what you were stuck on in the morning and things like that it will push you to your maximum level of concentration and dedication, which you cannot achieve by changing target every week

Take example of Behrouz Sadeghipour & @dawgyg they were on yahoo for a long time and I’m sure they know the asset better than anyone in the existence
only because they consistently hack on them (Consciously and Unconsciously )

I hope you enjoyed reading this and catch you at the next one

Stay curious ❤
