Security researchers laud Microsoft, Facebook bug bounty programs

JMH · Nov 9, 2013

Facebook and Microsoft are winning plaudits from security researchers for launching an initiative to offer bounties to bug hunters who discover and report vulnerabilities in widely used products.
Unlike other bug bounty programs, the program announced this week by the duo is not vendor specific. Rather it will reward bug hunters for vulnerabilities they discover in a range of technologies that includes Python, Perl, PHP, Ruby on Rails and Django, Apache and Nginx Web. Also covered are technologies such as the application sandbox mechanisms in Internet Explorer 10, Google Chrome and Adobe Reader.
