Find a Bug in Windows 10, Get Up to $100,000 Microsoft Bug Bounty

Here’s a great news for all the security researchers busy in finding bugs in Windows 10. Microsoft has announced that its original Microsoft bug bounty program will reward up to $100,000 to those spotting problems in Microsoft products. It should be noted that relatively, Microsoft is new in the bug bounty industry. Trying to make Windows 10 and other products safer to use, it has joined the leagues of the other companies that give away big rewards as bug bounties.

In a blog post, Microsoft’s Jason Shirk writes that Windows maker is very pleased to expand the Microsoft Bug Bounty Program. This makes perfect sense given the fact that Windows 10 is facing criticism over its privacy settings and it is busy releasing updates to the users. The company has used the Black Hat USA 2015 as a platform to announce its updated program where security enthusiasts can visit Microsoft’s Networking Lounge to participate in events and win prizes.
