Abu Dhabi school organises second coding hackathon

Abu Dhabi, an innovative and disruptive coding school, and BEACON RED, an advanced cyber solutions provider that tackles complex national security threats, have jointly organised their second hackathon under the title “Cyber Warriors: Unleashing the Power of Bug Bounties in Cybersecurity”.

The hackathon, which was attended by over 60 students from 42 Abu Dhabi, focused on Bug Bounty programmes, which have become an essential part of cybersecurity and have a significant impact on all sectors of the economy.

These programmes incentivise independent researchers, often referred to as bug bounty hunters or ethical hackers, to identify and report vulnerabilities in the organisation’s software, websites, or network infrastructure.
