Noam Rathaus, CTO and Co-Founder of Beyond Security, added: “We designed the competition to help improving the security posture of the software and devices, responsibly disclosing vulnerabilities to the vendors as well as awarding monetary prizes and fame to the security researchers who are good enough to win the contest. This event is a rare opportunity to help the security ecosystem while getting cash for doing so, getting credit for vulnerabilities found and disclosing them responsibly" he added.

Aviram Jenik additionally, said: "We chose South Korea for the event because of the talent pool that is available in the country and its central influence on the entire region.
