Kaspersky Lab is extending its bug bounty program to include rewards of up to $100,000.
The new top-end award will be for the discovery and responsible disclosure of severe vulnerabilities in some of the firm’s flagship products, and it represents a twentyfold increase on existing reward levels.
Examples of qualifying discoveries include bugs that enable remote code execution via the product database update channel, with the launch of malware code taking place silently from the user in the product’s high privilege process and being able to survive the reboot of the system.
