You will receive $ 7000 right from OnePlus if you do this
According to a plan to improve common security set out from the beginning of the year, OnePlus has just launched a new security bug detection bonus program called OnePlus Security Feedback Center (OneSRC). Just like other bug reward programs, OnePlus calls for the unlimited participation of all security experts around the world to help this smartphone manufacturer find any security holes as well as threats. Any potential threats appear on their system.
Depending on the nature and complexity of the vulnerability you find, the bonus amount will range from USD 50 (VND 1.15 million) to VND 7,000 (VND 162 million). It can be seen that the bonus offered by OnePlus is not as `` terrible '' as many other large technology companies such as Facebook, Google or Apple (can be up to $ 1.5 million), but of course detecting vulnerabilities on a system of one. The company that is not too specialized in software like OnePlus will certainly not be as difficult as for the giants in the technology world mentioned above. This is also a 'fit' challenge for 'beginner' white hat hackers, and especially those who live on the 'bug bounty hunt' profession, which has been developing in recent years.
According to a report of GSMArena, the bonus of OnePlus is divided into five levels as follows:
- Special cases: Up to USD 7,000
- Severe flaw: 750 to 1,500 USD
- Complex flaw: 250 to 750 USD
- Relatively complicated flaw: 100 to 250 USD
- Small system error: 50 to 100 USD
In a related announcement, OnePlus also completed a partnership agreement with a well-known security platform developed by HackerOne, allowing the company to gain more insights from the perspective of security researchers. leading, independent academics and security experts from around the world for their systems.
The trend of awarding security bug bounties is growing widely in the modern technology world, led by big names like Google, Microsoft or Facebook. Today, many companies consider the generous reward for white hat hackers, or rather, 'cooperating' with the free security community as a long-term bargain compared to risking coping with attacks. Cyber attacks can cause severe damage to your business activities.
