Apple provides a $1 million incentive to hack its secret AI cloud.

A reward of up to $1 million has been offered by the multinational computer giant Apple to anyone who breaches its Private Cloud Compute, which will integrate artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities.

The corporation recently posted a blog post titled “Security research on Private Cloud Compute,” in which it offered a reward to anyone who could find cloud service vulnerabilities that could endanger the service.

The news coincided with Apple’s planned release of iOS 18.1 and Apple Intelligence on iPhones the following week.

For the first time, the update will also bring AI capabilities to the iPhone, such improvements to Siri, the speech assistant.

The tech giant will use its own silicon servers to power the Private Cloud computation, which it describes as “the most advanced security architecture ever deployed for cloud AI compute at scale.”

“We made resources to facilitate this inspection, such as the PCC Virtual Research Environment, available to third-party auditors and a few security researchers in advance in the weeks following our announcement of Apple Intelligence and PCC,” Apple stated in the blog.

The business has extended an invitation to researchers, security experts, and anybody else who wants to pinpoint the platform’s weaknesses.

In addition to giving $1 million for identifying significant vulnerabilities through “remote attack on request data,” the corporation is rewarding anyone who can gain access to sensitive information or user request data outside the boundaries of trust with $250,000.

Apple went on to say, “We will consider any security issue that has a significant impact to PCC for an Apple Security Bounty reward, even if it doesn’t match a published category, because we care deeply about any compromise to user privacy or security.”

It would “consider each report based on the quality of the information provided, the evidence of what can be exploited, and the impact to users,” according to Apple.
