Earlier this year, Redmond announced increased payouts for moderate severity Microsoft Copilot (AI) vulnerabilities and a 100% award multiplier for all Copilot bounty awards to incentivize AI research. Microsoft announced an increase in bug bounty payouts to $30,000 for AI vulnerabilities found in Dynamics 365 and Power Platform services and products. "We're excited to share that we received more than 600 vulnerability submissions and awarded more than $1.6 million during the qualifying research challenge and live event," said Tom Gallagher, Vice President of Engineering at Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC). Power Platform includes applications designed to help companies analyze data and automate processes, while Dynamics 365 is a set of business apps that connect customers, products, people, and operations. During last year's Ignite annual conference, Microsoft also expanded its bug bounty program by launching the Zero Day Quest, a hacking event focused on cloud and AI products and platforms. While AI bounty awards range from $6,000 up to $30,000, higher payouts are also possible based on the impact and severity of the reported vulnerabilities and the quality of the submission. "We invite individuals or organizations to identify security vulnerabilities in targeted Dynamics 365 and Power Platform applications and share them with our team.
