Techie girl who taught himself won Rs 22 lakh from Microsoft to fix security issues

New Delhi: A 20-year-old Cybersecurity security analyst named Aditi Singh has won the Microsoft Azure bug prize of $ 30,000 (approximately more than Rs 22 Lakh).
While he was waiting to receive the greatest gift in his life, a happy Aditi shared that his parents had never been so proud of him and they finally felt he was “settled in his career”.
Singh found Bug RCE (or remote code execution) on the Azure Cloud Microsoft platform that came with severe security impacts.
The details of the bug have not been revealed publicly.
Bug Bounty Hunting has become a career choice that is trending for many technicians aspiring high throughout India.
But Singh’s story is different and inspiring.
Like many school children, he is also registered in one of the private institutions in the city after the 10th standard to prepare for IIT and Medical.
However, he immediately found that he might be lagging behind the race to break the competitive examination in India.
Apple will pay Rs 75 lakh to Techie based in Delhi to find a security bug “I joined Allen Institute in the city to prepare medical.
I have no previous knowledge about computer science education and it has just been the year I started hunting the gift of bugs,” He said in the interaction with the Times of India– Gadgetsnow.
After graduating from school, he signed up for a BCA degree course at Indira Gandhi National Open University (Ignou) and also worked as a Cybersecurity analyst at Mapmyindia.
“I learned about Javascript, MySQL, and other programming languages ​​by searching on Google and watching videos on YouTube.
I’m also interested in gift bugs and learn how to report it too.
It takes about a year of dedicated efforts to learn about technical,” he said.
Singh said he “hacked the way” to get the first job as a Cybersecurity analyst after school.
“While digging through several platforms, I found some vulnerabilities in Mapmyindia.
I reached out to them and was successfully employed without graduation degree.” He said that it was very stupid to believe that you need a computer science degree to learn about programming and cybersecurity.
There are many learning sources available online for free.
“You don’t need to be a bitian for gift bugs …
it’s easy enough if you are smart enough to search the internet.
If anyone wants to go into ethical hacking, they must start with JavaScript or Python and then get a certificate course in ethical hacking,” he said as advice.
