Bugcrowd is a U.S.-based crowdsourced security platform that researchers can use to discover bugs and other security vulnerabilities to win prizes. Tuan also topped the list in April.
Having discovered around 200 bugs and security vulnerabilities through the platform, Tuan has been named the Most Valuable Professional (MVP) of Bugcrowd four times.
Last year, he discovered 55 vulnerabilities on the E-Business Suite applications by multinational tech firm Oracle.
In April, Pham Van Khanh and Dao Trong Nghia, two Viettel Cyber Security experts, won USD 40,000 after detecting Windows 10 vulnerabilities at Pwn2Own 2021, one of the world's largest cyber-attack competitions.
