Centre launches “Bug Bounty” programme

The Central government has launched a “Bug Bounty” programme wherein financial rewards will be given to security researchers for finding any vulnerability in the Aarogya Setu application or suggesting improvements to the source code.

The “Bug Bounty” programme will be open to Indian and foreign nationals, but only Indians will be eligible for rewards offered under the scheme.

Anyone who points out a security vulnerability in the app source code will be eligible for a reward of up to ₹3 lakh, and up to ₹1 lakh for pointing out a suggestion or improvement in the source code.
