*Apple announced a limited, invite-only bug bounty program that will pay up to $200,000 for critical iOS and iCloud vulnerabilities (with different tiers for secure boot, Secure Enclave extraction, kernel code execution, and sandbox escapes), and the article contrasts this move with private brokers like Zerodium that have offered higher rewards such as a $1M bounty for iOS exploits, framing the program as a response to industry pressures and the risk of vulnerability information being sold to non-defensive actors.*
