Google announces new bug bounty platform

San Francisco: As Google celebrated 10-year anniversary of its Vulnerability Rewards Programme (VRP), the tech giant announced a new bug bounty platform for bug hunters.

Jan Keller, technical programme manager for Google’s VRP, wrote on a blogpost that the company is now unveiling a new platform — bughunters.google.com — for bug hunters to submit issues.

“This new site brings all of our VRPs (Google, Android, Abuse, Chrome and Play) closer together and provides a single intake form that makes it easier for bug hunters to submit issues,” Keller said.
