Google on Tuesday added a fresh attempt that pays you when you uncover a security problem in Android.

The Android Security Rewards application is different from Google’s Patch Compensations, a similar initiative that uses to choose open source endeavors and additions.

For the time being, Google is just making Nexus 9 tablet PC eligible and the Nexus 6 telephone for the Security Compensations that are brand new but says it may enlarge the list as time passes.

The organization is beginning with the most recent Nexus apparatus to strengthen attractiveness and the security of those. Google says Nexus is “the first important line of cellular devices to provide a continuous susceptibility benefits plan.”

It’s going to supply the greatest compensation payouts to people who are able to reveal workarounds to Android’s core security characteristics, like program sandboxing.

The dollars can add up, while a $500 benefit does not seem like much.
