Presented at BSidesSF 2015, April 20, 2015, 10 a.m. (60 minutes)

Leif Dreizler, BugCrowd, explores the inherent differences between the hacker and developer mentality. In this discussion, the audience will hear from a former breaker and fixer of security flaws on how developers who acknowledge the existence of ‘The Bogeyman' come that much closer to being active participants in ensuring their company's security, rather than passive victims.
