Re: Training request, The Bug Hunter's Methodology [Core]

Hi [Manager],

I would like approval to enroll in The Bug Hunter's Methodology [Core], the on-demand offensive security course taught by Jason Haddix through Arcanum Information Security. It is $1,000 USD, delivered as 27hr+ of on-demand content with lifetime access to the source material, so I can work through it around my normal responsibilities without travel or time away from the team.

This is not an A to Z beginner course. It focuses on expert tips, time-saving tricks, and a data-driven methodology for finding the vulnerabilities that are actually common in the wild today. Here is what it brings directly back to our team:

Skills that return to the team

  • A repeatable recon process: mapping our external attack surface through ASN analysis, reverse WHOIS, acquisitions, and thorough subdomain enumeration.
  • Recon-adjacent vulnerability analysis, including subdomain takeover, exposed S3 buckets, and quick hits like exposed configs, .git, and admin panels.
  • Content discovery and JavaScript analysis to surface hidden endpoints, parameters, and secrets in our applications.
  • Hands-on depth in high-impact vulnerability classes: XSS, IDOR, SSRF, XXE, SQL injection, file upload flaws, and dependency confusion.
  • Application heat mapping and security-control bypass techniques so we test the way real attackers do.

What it means for us

  • Internal capability that lets us find and triage issues earlier, reducing how much we lean on external testing spend.
  • A documented, data-driven methodology and tooling configuration the wider team can adopt.
  • Ongoing access to a practitioner community for fresh resources, recon data, and monthly hunts.

Note that registrations are non-refundable because the material is proprietary and continuously updated, and full recordings are provided so the investment stays useful long after the initial run.

I am happy to share notes and run an internal walkthrough for the team once I complete it. Thank you for considering this.

Best regards,
[Name]
