Study: Bug bounty programs provide strong value for vendors

Google and Mozilla have paid $580,000 in rewards for bugs in Chrome and Firefox browsers. Bug bounties have other advantages, such as reducing the number of vulnerabilities sold to malicious actors. Google’s program, while costing about the same as Mozilla’s, has identified more than three times as many bugs. Microsoft has traditionally not paid bounties, but did implement a one-off program last month. Researchers recommend Mozilla change its reward structure to a tiered system like that of Google’s Chrome.”]
