Computer Security firm Zerodium has offered $1 million bounty to find a way to hack Apple’s latest iOS 9 mobile operating system.
Zerodium which launched early this year in the United States by French online security expert Chaouki Bekrar, said it would pay out $1 million each to as many as three people or teams who manage to break into iPhones or iPads equipped with the iOS 9 software.
To win the money, hackers must use a web page or text message to remotely bypass the iOS 9 security and discretely install an application on the iPhone or iPad by October 31, the company said in an online statement.
The hackers must exploit previously unknown weaknesses in the security system.
Apple’s operating system is the most secure on the market, Zerodium said.
