Yes, second paragraph in the article “ Wiz Chief Technology Officer Ami Luttwak is a former chief technology officer at Microsoft's Cloud Security Group.”
You just reminded me of something I heard on a recent Darknet Diaries episode:
> Some of the best hackers within the NSA turned into independent contractors so they could work faster and make more money, but were on the outside? This is one of those things that someone like Microsoft is afraid of, too. If they pay too much for bugs, then some of their internal bug hunters might decide to quit but keep doing the same thing; just make more money on the outside.
He even used Microsoft as an example. I wonder if they paid less because the researcher was a turncoat in their mind.
