Cyber Ethics

Scenario

You’re a skilled and dedicated software engineer at a renowned bank, responsible for managing critical systems and ensuring their security. With hacking as your passion, you revel in finding vulnerabilities and uncovering hidden flaws. Though you’re working, you feel you aren’t really heard in the company. As time goes by, you grow discontent with the company’s policies and treatment of its employees. You believe you are more talented than you’re given credit for. Besides, you can do more on your own. The resentment builds up, and eventually, you decide to leave the company.

Months later, you come across a vulnerability in the systems of the company you previously worked for. This vulnerability could potentially expose sensitive customer data and financial information.

This could be your chance to display your potential by exploiting this vulnerability to breach the company’s systems. What do you do?
