Google will now pay bigger rewards for discovering Chrome security bugs

Google launched a bug bounty program for Chrome in 2010. Rewards in Chrome's bug bounty program vary considerably based on how severe a bug is and how detailed your report is — a "baseline" report with fewer details will generally earn less than a "high-quality" report that does things like explain how a bug might be exploited, why it's happening and how it might be fixed. The maximum payout for a baseline report is increasing from $5,000 to $15,000, while the maximum payout for a high-quality report is being bumped from $15,000 to $30,000.
