Apple's website reads, “Our groundbreaking security technologies protect the users of over 1.8 billion active devices around the world. Hear about the latest advances in Apple security from our engineering teams, send us your research, and work directly with us to be recognized and rewarded for helping keep our users safe.”
Apple reveals a security hub and an updated program to improve its ecosystem by providing remedies to errors and vulnerabilities that are found. Apple says it has tweaked its response time and reporting and communicating are simplified.
The company states, “First, we’re responding much more quickly. At times we received many more submissions than we anticipated, so we’ve grown our team and worked hard to be able to complete an initial evaluation of nearly every report we receive within two weeks, and most within six days.”
“Our Apple Security Research site includes a new way to send us research on the web and get real-time status updates. Just sign in with your Apple ID and follow the prompts to send us a detailed report. You can then track the progress of your report and communicate securely with Apple engineers as we investigate.”
The company states that the new program will be transparent and the site has information on Apple Security Bounty and criteria for evaluation. The Bounty program includes examples and ranges helping the hunters to understand where to focus and what reward is given.
The company clarifies, “We’ve provided ranges for submissions that impact Apple services and infrastructure, as well as our products.”
