Microsoft To Pay Up To $15K For Bugs In Two Visual Studio Tools
itwbennett writes: Yesterday, Microsoft started a three-month bug bounty program for two open source tools that are part of Visual Studio 2015.

Bounties range from $500 to $15,000, although Microsoft will reward more 'depending on the entry quality and complexity.'
