Google on April 23 raised to dollars 20,000 its bounty on software bugs that hackers could exploit for cyber attacks on the Internet giant's online services.
The maximum reward for exposing a vulnerability that would let an intruder's code get up to mischief in a Google datacentre was ramped up from the dollars 3,133.7 payout set when the bounty programme launched in November of 2010.
The bounty was raised to inspire software savants to hunt for difficult-to-find, and potentially perilous, bugs hidden deep in programmes, according to Mein.
