Pwn2Own hacking contest winners win US$15,000, a brand-new iPhone and a trip to Las Vegas. The annual contest pays hackers for their exploit code, which leverages software flaws to give the attackers a foothold on the machine being attacked. The first fully functioning attack on an iPhone since Apple released version 2 of the device in 2008, Charlie Miller says. Contest winners take home the device they hack, in addition to $10,000 in prize money for a Web browser attack.”]
