@minhajulmredol yeah I heard the detailed story too how Bangladesh bank got hacked with just a pdf file. You know that, right?
Yessss, that hacker group is supported by their country itself. They took a year inside the system and no one detected any unusual activities, the same scenario in most of the IT sector in our place. You can't even imagine how vulnerable our government and educational sites are! Within a day, one can take down hundreds of websites, lol
The most unfortunate thing is they are discouraging. Outside companies are paying ethical hackers to find bugs in their projects through "Bug Bounty Hunting" programs and here in our country no one would even dare to report a bug, even for free of cost. Because instead of being grateful they would be like, "You came to hack, who told you to do this, blah blah blah."
Exactly, exactly! And this is one of the reasons why we aren't making that much progress on this site. I heard in an podcast that world's next leading and dominant countries will be those who has strong cyber security soliders (like Israel, Russia and Korea). Then it makes me think that which position are we holding? :3 sigh!!
True,
We have lots of skilled people to contribute but the problem is proper recognition. Most of us know that here we can't expect a similar payout like one would easily get from a foreign platform but if respected recognition is promised then everyone would happily participate.
I believe this will going to happen pretty soon. Coz their is no way around.
I hope so too.
