Security rewards at Google: Two MEEELLION Dollars Later
12 tháng 8, 2013
Posted by Chris Evans and Adam Mein, Masters of Coin
One of Google’s core security principles is to engage the community, to better protect our users and build relationships with security researchers. We had this principle in mind as we launched our
Chromium
and
Google Web
Vulnerability Reward Programs. We didn’t know what to expect, but in the three years since launch, we’ve rewarded (and fixed!) more than 2,000 security bug reports and also received recognition for setting
leading standards for response time
.
The collective creativity of the wider security community has surpassed all expectations, and their expertise has helped make Chrome even safer for hundreds of millions of users around the world. Today we’re delighted to announce we’ve now paid out in excess of $2,000,000 (USD) across Google’s security reward initiatives. Broken down, this total includes more than $1,000,000 (USD) for the
Chromium VRP
/
Pwnium
rewards, and in excess of $1,000,000 (USD) for the
Google Web VRP
rewards.
Today, the Chromium program is raising reward levels significantly. In a nutshell, bugs previously rewarded at the $1,000 level will now be considered for reward at up to $5,000. In many cases, this will be a 5x increase in reward level! We’ll issue higher rewards for bugs we believe present a more significant threat to user safety, and when the researcher provides an accurate analysis of exploitability and severity. We will continue to pay
previously announced bonuses
on top, such as those for
providing a patch
or finding an issue in a critical piece of open source software.
Interested Chromium researchers should familiarize themselves with our documentation on
how to report a security bug well
and
how we determine higher reward eligibility
.
These Chromium reward level increases follow on from similar
increases under the Google Web program
. With all these new levels, we’re excited to march towards new milestones and a more secure web.
