Google joins OpenAI and Microsoft in rewarding AI bug hunts.

Google expanded its Vulnerability Rewards Program to include bugs and vulnerabilities that could be found in generative AI. Specifically, Google is looking for bug hunters for its own generative AI, products such as Google Bard, which is available in many countries, or Google Cloud's Contact Center AI, Agent Assist.

There are limitations as to what counts as a vulnerability in generative AI; a complete list of what vulnerabilities Google considers in scope or out of scope for the Vulnerability Rewards Program is in this Google security blog.

Ultimately, anyone participating in the bug bounty needs to prove that the vulnerability they discover could "Pose a compelling attack scenario or feasible path to Google or user harm," according to the Google security blog.
