The Mozilla Foundation, creator of the Firefox Web browser, launched in 2004 the program Bug Bounty (system errors) by which it was rewarded over then with US$ 500 whoever reported a security flaw in the server.

Google has started to do something similar. They reward with US$ 1,300 anyone who finds system errors, vulnerabilities (which may better capture the hackers) and directly a virus that is the result of a freelance programmer or paid in cyberwarfare.

via US$ 3,000 will be delivered to whoever find bugs in Firefox | Momento 24.
