FanDuel, the web-based fantasy sports game with traditional season-long fantasy sports leagues compressed into daily or weekly games of skill, is used by over 8 million members across the globe. With hundreds of millions of dollars being exchanged through weekly games, the small but mighty FanDuel security is tasked with defending enormous amounts of sensitive data all while meeting rigorous state and national regulations. Over the course of their bug bounty program, FanDuel has resolved about 85 vulnerabilities and paid out over $35,000 in gratitude to researchers. We dove a little deeper with Liam to learn more about how his security team of seven works with the researcher community to boost security and how researchers can maximize their earnings by being creative.
