Announcing BlueHat v10: A Security Odyssey

Friday, September 10, 2010

BlueHat v10 is on the horizon and I’m happy to be able to announce the lineup.

I wanted to provide some context and history on how this came about. This post is about changing the way we at Microsoft talk about some familiar disclosure concepts, and is meant as an introduction to how Microsoft would like to engage with researchers.
