It all started on June 16th 2011 with a blog post:
That’s right! June 16th this year, 2021, marks our 10th birthday! 🥳
To celebrate we want to give something special back to the security research community, and we chose to giveaway a fully paid Pentesting with Kali Offensive Security PEN-200 OSCP certification course, worth $999!
To be in with a chance to win the best hands on security certification available, all you have to do is submit a valid WordPress core, plugin or theme vulnerability to us via our website submission form.
We will be picking a winner at random on our birthday, June 16th, from any security researcher that submitted a valid vulnerability to us this year (2021) up until our birthday.
Best of luck to you and thank you for your support over the years!
