A Summary of Fuzzing Tools and Dictionaries For Bug Bounty Hunters
 
 
Testing for vulnerabilities by manually entering input can be unmanageable. In these days and age where people have low levels of time and patience, the idea of ​​manually providing input to find bugs/holes in a target can be overwhelming.

To reduce this overwhelming problem and save time, fuzzing can be a big advantage. Fuzzing is an automated process where all the heavy lifting is handled by a fuzzing tool. All the analyst has to do is see the response, time, and status code when the process is complete.

Consider a site with many input fields to test for XSS. In the manual method, all we do is feed the XSS payload to the input field one by one, which is too unmanageable.

Fuzzing is the process or technique of sending multiple requests to a target website within a certain time interval. In other words, it is also similar to brute force.

We Learn Systems by Changing Them
 
 
Michael C. Jackson, a systems scientist, contrasts action research with old-style hard science, which tries to study a system from the outside. In the social world, there is no outside: we participate in the systems we study.

Jackson continues: To ensure scientific rigor, this demands a close analysis of the initial situation, clearly documented action to bring about desired change and continuous monitoring of effects, and careful analysis of the end results of the action.

This is also noticeable in code: when it comes to an existing codebase, we get a handle on it by changing stuff.

Notes on an Observability Team
 
 
An Observability Team should be a compliment to, not a replacement for, a strong Observability culture with an engineering team.

It's also an easily misunderstood team within a company. Not every company is going to need an Observability team, but at a certain scale it becomes a reasonable investment or full time focus.

The goal should be that the benefits of Observability tools get out of the box and get useful to your organization .
