Facebook has announced a new loyalty program as part of its bug-bounty offering. The Hacker Plus program aims to further incentivize researchers to find vulnerabilities in its platform. Facebook bounty hunters will be placed into tiers by analyzing their score, signal and number of submitted bug reports. The program offers bonuses on top of bounty awards, access to more products and features that researchers can stress-test, and invites to Facebook annual events. It adds another layer to Facebook s bounty effort, which has been around since 2011.
