Apple has increased the maximum reward for its bug bounty program from $200,000 to $1 million. Payouts will be rewarded for a severe deadly exploit, a zero-click kernel code execution vulnerability that enables complete, persistent control of a device’s kernel. From next year, Apple will also provide pre-jailbroken iPhones to a selection of trusted security researchers as part of the iOS Security Research Device Program. The new program will be open to all researchers, rather than a limited number of security experts approved by Apple.
