Bounty Hunter in the network, white-hat hackers can make a lot of money-white-hat hackers, Bounty Hunter-IT information

There is no doubt that to invade a computer to steal data or turn it into your own broiler is a valuable skill, this skill can be used right, can also be used for path. And we all know that revenue who use this skill to must have a lot of money.

Of course, it is difficult to know senior hacker, the average income, but even just the Ransomware this type of malware is very profitable.

Ransomware is, when hackers found vulnerabilities exist on your computer, install software through security holes in your computer to lock your computer or files until you unlock until a ransom was paid. Americans paid us $ 24 million in 2015, and this is just warning people to pay ransom.

However, according to startup HackerOne vulnerability reward organization's latest survey, by participating in the white hat vulnerability reward program can get a good income. When a company or Government agency to invite hacker intrusions, will pay bonuses for hackers who find vulnerabilities, this is vulnerability reward program. More serious vulnerabilities, higher bonuses.

Earlier this week, Google, in its "0 plans" (Project Zero Prize), announced $ 200,000 reward to find the best Android vulnerability hackers, second and third place prize of $ 100,000 and $ 50,000, respectively. However, this level of prize money is not often. For example, Microsoft will be qualified in the Edge browser vulnerabilities to pay $ 500 to $ 15,000.

For those committed to this hackers, they can lead a good life through vulnerability reward program.

According to the HackerOne survey of 617 successful hacker, hacker half of them through vulnerability reward program to earn more than $ 35,000 a year, 11% hacker can earn $ 50,000 or more, 6% hacker can earn $ 100,000 or more a year.

We are often asked, entirely hacker vulnerability reward life? 17% hacker surveyed said their total income comes from vulnerability reward, 26% hacker surveyed said their income had more than 70% from vulnerability reward.

Successful hacker young, too, most below the age of 35.

HackerOne investigation of hackers, 90% aged under 35 years of age, aged 18 to 24 years of age number of 43%, followed by 25-to-34 age group, at 41%. Only 6% of hackers said they surveyed aged 13 to 17 years old, 1% hacker under investigation was not below the age of 13!

Although most hacker says he is under investigation for money or fun to engage in this business, but there are over 50% white hat to find these vulnerabilities in order to help fight the bad guys.

网络中的赏金猎人，白帽黑客也能赚大钱 - 白帽黑客,赏金猎人 - IT资讯

毫无疑问，能够入侵计算机窃取数据或者让它变成自己的肉鸡是一项极具价值的技能，虽然这一技能可以用于正途，也可以用于邪路。而我们都知道，用这一技能来干坏事的收入想必不菲。

当然，我们很难知道高级黑客的平均收入，但光是勒索软件这一类恶意软件的利润就很丰厚。

勒索软件指的是，当黑客发现你的计算机存在安全漏洞时，通过安全漏洞在你的计算机中安装软件锁定你的电脑或文件，直到你支付了一笔赎金才解锁。美国人在2015年为此支付了2400万美元，而这还只是报警的人所支付的赎金。

不过，根据漏洞悬赏组织初创公司HackerOne的最新调查，白帽子们通过参加漏洞悬赏项目也能获得很好的收入。当有公司或政府机构邀请黑客们入侵时，会为黑客们找到的漏洞支付奖金，这就是漏洞悬赏项目。漏洞越严重，奖金就越高。

谷歌在本周早些时候在其“零日计划"(Project Zero Prize)中宣布，将奖励找到最佳安卓漏洞的黑客20万美元，第二名和第三名的奖金分别为10万美元和5万美元。不过，这种程度的奖金并不常有。比如，微软会为其Edge浏览器中的合格漏洞支付500美元到1.5万美元。

对于那些致力于此的黑客们来说，他们也能通过漏洞悬赏项目过上很好的生活。

根据HackerOne对617位成功黑客的调查，其中一半黑客每年通过漏洞悬赏项目能赚3.5万美元以上，11%的黑客能赚5万美元以上，6%的黑客每年能赚10万美元以上。

我们经常问，黑客能完全靠漏洞悬赏生活吗？17%的受调查黑客称自己的全部收入都来自于漏洞悬赏，26%的受调查黑客称自己的年收入有70%以上来自漏洞悬赏。

成功黑客也很年轻，大部分年纪在35岁以下。

HackerOne调查的黑客中有90%年纪在35岁以下，其中18岁到24岁的年龄段人数最多，达43%，其次是25岁到34岁年龄段，为41%。只有6%的受调查黑客称自己年纪在13岁到17岁间，不到1%的受调查黑客年纪在13岁以下！

虽然大部分受调查黑客称自己是为了钱或乐趣才从事这一行，但有超过50%的白帽子称找到这些漏洞是为了帮助对抗坏人。
