🔰EU Offering Cash Bounty Incentives For Finding Security Flaws in Open Source Tools🔰
The European Union (EU) is back with a third edition of its Free and Open Source Software Audit (FOSSA) plan of action for 2019. As a security audit measure, FOSSA relies on its bug bounty programme. This covers numerous open source projects like VLC, Apache, Filezilla, Kafka and more. EU has reserved the highest allocation towards PuTTY, followed by Drupal and KeePass.
A Snapshot
FOSSA aims at bringing together the developer community to ensure better security of open source systems, such as CMS or other standard software used by the EU.
There are several open-source software that is widely used by the authorities, as well as the public at large. Reportedly some of these are used as part of the EU’s IT Infrastructure, and therefore they are keen on ensuring better security for such projects.
