Google raises bounty on software bugs that hackers could exploit for cyber attacks on the Internet giant’s online services. Maximum reward for exposing a vulnerability that would let an intruder’s code get up to mischief in a Google data centre was ramped up from $US3,133 ($A3,030) payout set when the bounty program was launched in November of 2010. Remote code flaws found in Google’s Web apps will also be rewarded $20,000. A $10,000 bounty will be paid for SQL injection bugs or significant authentication bypass or data leak vulnerabilities.
