Google has launched a new bug bounty program for security experts, under which the company will pay 1000 $ to those who know security vulnerabilities in the Android apps and provide information to the company.
The technology giant said on its website that Google Play Security Reward Program recognizes the contribution of security researchers, who put their time and effort to make our apps more secure on Google Play. This program is being run in partnership with Hackerwan, in which all the apps from Google are included.
The company said that As being the part of this program, we improve the safety of our apps. Which helps developers, Android users and the entire Google Play ecosystem. In this competition, devices running on Android 4.4 and above operating systems have been included.
If the researcher identifies the path of any type of attack in any Google app, they have to inform the app developer directly via current risk disclosure or through a bug-bounty process. The app developer will then work with the researcher to correct the path to the burglary.
Once the road to the trunk will be closed, the researchers will then be able to appeal to provide bonus bounty from Google Play safety
