Google again challenged hackers to show off in the race paved Pwnium at a security conference next March. This time, the prize offered by the search engine giant was not half-hearted, 3.14 million U.S. dollars.
In Pwnium 3, the event is called, the hackers will be challenged for the first time for tinkering with Google's operating system, Chrome OS. For those who can hack, each was given a gift from 110 thousand to 150 thousand U.S. dollars.
Google said in a statement on Monday (29/1) states, they will provide the prize money to $ 3, 14 million, or more precisely USD 3.14159 for this race. This means the opportunity to earn prizes open to more people.
Engineers from the Chrome security team, Chris Evans via his blog on Monday, said prize will be awarded 110 thousand dollars for any hacker who can "outsmart" Chrome OS or Chrome browser via a website exploit-serving (exploit-serving website) in the race.
As for those who can do what he called, "through the persistence of the" ("compromise with persistance device") or when hacking can survive a reboot in Chrome OS-based notebooks will be rewarded for a larger, 150 thousand dollars.
"We believe this reflects a greater reward additional challenges associated with the breaking of the defense and security of Chrome OS, the operating system rather than the traditional," said Evans.
Pwnium 3 will take place March 7, 2013 at the CanSecWest security conference, Vancouver, Colombia.
