Bug hunters get big cash rewarbs
Hackers who seek out loopholes in
popular programs could soon get cash
rewards for their finds.
Security firm Tipping Point is setting
up a scheme that will see it spend
substantial sums to buy bugs sent in by
researchers that join the project.
Those who top the scheme's rewards
system could be earning $50,000 a year
from their bug hunting.
Although Tipping Point is collecting
the bugs, it said it would share finds
with other security firms.
