Google to End Play Security Reward Program by August 31

Google is set to shut down its Google Play Security Reward Program by the end of August 2024. The program, which was launched in 2017, aimed to incentivize developers and security researchers to discover vulnerabilities in popular Android apps. This decision marks the end of Google's initiative to pay for the discovery of security flaws in these apps. Participants of the program have been notified of its closure, which has been a significant effort in enhancing app security on the Google Play Store.
