Samsung has announced a substantial bug bounty program aimed at bolstering the security of its Galaxy devices.
The tech giant is offering a staggering $1,000,000 reward for researchers who can successfully demonstrate a remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability on the Galaxy’s secure vault.
The secure vault is a critical component of Samsung’s mobile security architecture, designed to protect sensitive user data such as biometric information and cryptographic keys.
An RCE vulnerability in this area could potentially grant attackers unrestricted access to a device, posing a severe risk to user privacy and security.
Samsung’s new bug bounty program dubbed the “Important Scenario Vulnerability Program (ISVP),” also includes rewards for other critical vulnerabilities, such as device unlocking, data extraction, and arbitrary application installation.
This aggressive move by Samsung underscores the company’s commitment to device security and its willingness to invest heavily in protecting user data.
