Overview of this book

Bug bounties have quickly become a critical part of the security economy. This book shows you how technical professionals with an interest in security can begin productively—and profitably—participating in bug bounty programs. You will learn about SQli, NoSQLi, XSS, XXE, and other forms of code injection. You’ll see how to create CSRF PoC HTML snippets, how to discover hidden content (and what to do with it once it’s found), and how to create the tools for automated pentesting work?ows. Then, you’ll format all of this information within the context of a bug report that will have the greatest chance of earning you cash. With detailed walkthroughs that cover discovering, testing, and reporting vulnerabilities, this book is ideal for aspiring security professionals. You should come away from this work with the skills you need to not only find the bugs you're looking for, but also the best bug bounty programs to participate in, and how to grow your skills moving forward in freelance security research.

Going Further

Hopefully, you've found the resources contained in this book useful. As you look to expand your interest in infosec, vulnerabilities, and public bug bounty programs in particular, there are plenty of great resources to help you on your way.

In this chapter, I've tried to collect a smattering of some of the best community sites, curated blogs, educational resources, bug report archives, and finally, a glossary of some of the more important (and opaque) security terms used by this and other books. This chapter should be a nice reference going forward, acting as your springboard as you dive deeper into the world of independent, freelance security research.
