Katie Moussouris

Katie Moussouris is the Chief Policy Officer for HackerOne, a platform provider for coordinated vulnerability response & structured bounty programs, though she is open to suggestions on how to make her title abbreviation C3PO because for once, these actually are the droids you're looking for. She is a noted authority on vuln disclosure & advises lawmakers, customers, & researchers to legitimize & promote security research & help make the internet safer for everyone. Katie fights for your right to party at ring zero, and get paid for it. Katie's earlier Microsoft work encompassed industry-leading initiatives such as Microsoft's bounty programs & Microsoft Vulnerability Research. She is also a subject matter expert for the US National Body of the International Standards Organization (ISO) in vuln disclosure (29147), vuln handling processes (30111), and secure development (27034). Katie fell on some policy grenades for ya there, and you should take her to a karaoke bar to celebrate. Katie is a visiting scholar with MIT Sloan School, doing research on the vulnerability economy and exploit market, because while she knows money can't buy you love, it can buy you bugs. Katie is a New America Foundation Fellow, and hopes to be a jolly good one, as she helps develop better policies. Katie is an ex-hacker, ex-Linux developer, and persistent disruptor.
