An American Information Security Company, Zerodium, is offering up to $1.5 million “for original and unreported vulnerabilities with fully functional exploits on major operating systems, software and/or devices.”  With iOS 10 recently released, this OS can offer the biggest chance of payouts.  Zerodium’s main business focuses on “acquiring zero-day vulnerabilities and exploits and creating protective security measures and recommendations for them.” The biggest bounty paid by the company was to a team of Zerodium researchers who “successfully made a remote browser-based untethered iOS 9.1/9.2b jailbreak.”
