After a second data breach in the last two years hit OnePlus in November, the phone manufacturer launched a new bug bounty program to help improve its security. And now, you can start reporting any bug or vulnerability you find over at the OnePlus Security Response Center. You will need to make an account to make a report. OnePlus even has a leaderboard for top contributors on the bug bounty program's main page. 

If that isn't incentive enough, OnePlus is offering rewards based on the different tiers starting at US$50 up to US$7,000. We don't know how OnePlus is classifying each tier, but the company says the compensation you could get is "determined based on vulnerability severity and actual business impact."
