The it security firm Zerodium is offering a sum of truly high of money that he can find a vulnerability functional of the so-called zero-day (that have an access door to install malicious code) in iOS 10.
Obviously, the new Apple operating system for mobile devices has very little chance of being hacked, otherwise you will not be offered such a prize.
Only (or nothing less) you need to send a security flaw that is not documented and that is able to unlock the complex security of the platform present in iPhones and iPads.
there is not even rushing to be the first to do so: Chaouki Bekrar, the founder of Zerodium, ensures that your firm is able to offer the same prize to more than one winner.
it is Not difficult to imagine that the interest of Zerodium is not to solve the life (economically speaking) to a programmer, but to sell security to companies like Apple: hacking, zero-day are unknown even for the firms that make the software, and are extremely hard to find, but it is not technically impossible.
Apple, by your account, has its own rewards program to hackers, but the rewards do not come close to the that gives Zerodium.
