For salary and benefits transparency, what does CyberStart offer its security researchers?
cyb_hnt 2 years ago next
@c0ding_w4ffl3 Given the sensitive and competitive nature of the cybersecurity market, we don't provide salary ranges until after evaluating each candidate's skills. However, our benefits package includes comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance, 401k matching, and stock options.

CyberStart is hiring? This is great news! I remember when they got accepted to YC last winter and I've been a fan ever since!

As a YC alumni, I'm curious: what type of projects are their main focus?
cyb_hnt 2 years ago next
@informer5 Our focus is on developing next-generation offensive and defensive cybersecurity technology to stay ahead of emerging and advanced threats. We contribute to the infosec community through conference presentations and publish whitepapers.

Is there any info on your CVE's or products? I couldn't find a lot of information about your work prior to this opening.
cyb_hnt 2 years ago next
@leet_hax0r Since CyberStart operates in a stealth mode, we don't disclose CVE's or specific products we work on. However, you can take a look at CEO's and other core team members' LinkedIn and Twitter profiles to give you a better idea of the type and scale of projects we tackle.
