About this tag
The top 100 tag on WindowsForum.com covers Microsoft's annual Top 100 Security Researcher list, unveiled at the Black Hat Security Conference. This list recognizes the top security researchers who have contributed research to Microsoft products and services, as compiled by the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC).
