Pwn2Own

Pwn2Own is a cybersecurity contest where experts test and demonstrate vulnerabilities in popular software, like web browsers or operating systems. Participants, often researchers or hackers, attempt to exploit these systems to showcase security flaws, usually within a controlled environment. The event encourages responsible disclosure and helps companies improve their security defenses. Winners typically earn prizes or money for their findings, and the process benefits everyone by identifying and fixing weaknesses before malicious actors can exploit them.
