- Kaspersky uncovered iOS vulnerabilities in ‘Operation Triangulation’, reported to Apple, but was refused bounty payment
- Apple’s Security Bounty Program offers rewards up to $1 million for discovering vulnerabilities to prevent them from being sold on the dark web
- Apple’s refusal to pay Kaspersky could be due to restrictions on financial transactions with companies in sanctioned countries like Russia.
Kaspersky can whine all they want. Russia is embargoed. They’re not getting their money.
Kaspersky is a good company doing good work in the cyber security space. Unfortunately, because of the embargo, they may have to turn to the black market to sell future exploits. Or maybe not; I’m not totally sure what kind of ethical standards they have.
Yeah sorry guys, did you forget you work for an asshole?
It would be very very bad for world if the folks at Kaspersky turned to black hat activity
That is not for Apple to decide. They should just follow the law.
I wish they opensource their framework
Who/what are on those other lists.
Kaspersky also has a bunch of US-based subsidiaries or partners they’re selling their software through. Or Apple could have just escrowed their reward until the embargo was over.
