Roni Carta: From Bug Bounties to Building a Safer Supply Chain

Points touched upon

  • Maggie Miller’s HackerOne profile of Roni Carta, who came into security through curiosity rather than degrees, with bug bounty platforms as his classroom.
  • The discover, report, refine, repeat loop that became his technical education.
  • Spotting the same software supply-chain weakness across Fortune 500 and FAANG companies, with open-source components pulled in with little checking.
  • The research community that turned bug bounty from a side project into a career.
  • Recent supply-chain attacks such as the compromised debug and chalk npm packages, the GhostAction campaign and a $1.5 billion crypto theft, and Roni starting his own company to tackle the problem.
