Trend Micro, the operator of the Zero Day Initiative (ZDI) and Pwn2Own bug bounty programs, wants security researchers to pay more attention to finding bugs in widely used server-side software.

The security vendor Tuesday announced a new "Targeted Incentive Program" through which it is offering monetary rewards of up to $200,000 to researchers who are the first to report critical flaws in specific targeted products within a certain time frame.

The goal is to try and acquire a greater number of critical server flaws across a broader range of products than has been possible with its other programs, says Dustin Childs, communications manager for Trend Micro's ZDI team. "With Pwn2Own, we're able to acquire specific types of bugs through the various categories of the contest. This is great, but the contest is only a couple of days," Childs says.
