Apple offers $2 million bounty for system flaws: world’s most expensive bug hunt.
Apple has doubled its rewards for security researchers who discover vulnerabilities in their operating systems or devices, with a maximum incentive of $2 million for zero-click attacks. The company introduced the “Isolation Mode” in 2022 to protect high-profile individuals, offering an additional reward of over $5 million to anyone who can bypass it. Apple’s security lab in Paris works to find vulnerabilities, while the introduction of Memory Integrity Enforcement enhances defense against malware. The rewards program, ranging from $500,000 to $5 million, aims to incentivize security research and maintain Apple’s reputation as a secure platform.
