Google offers $1337 for 1337 hacks for chrome

Think you know a flaw inside Google’s Chrome browser? Google is offering $1337 (W00t) for each and every security related bug found inside the browser. This is basically Google showing the world how confident they are in their browser. In my opinion, I love the thing. It’s fast, secure, and hey, it works. This is also their way of getting security experts to once over their software. Now personally, I know that Zero Day exploits can go for $100k plus on the black market, but it will be interesting to see who takes the bait. This is just one part of a two part campaign to finally get people to wake up and get rid of IE. The other side of this is now Google is going to end support on Google Docs and other offerings for IE6.

Thanks and as always, if you like the post, don’t forget to share it!
