We are excited to announce the addition of scenario-based bounty awards to the Dynamics 365 and Power Platform Bounty Program and M365 Bounty Program. Through these new scenario-based bounty awards, we encourage researchers to focus their research on vulnerabilities that have the highest potential impact on customer privacy and security. Awards increase by up to 30% ($26,000 USD total) for eligible scenario submissions.

These new bounty awards are part of our continued efforts to partner with the security research community as part of Microsoft’s holistic approach to defending against security threats. If you have any questions about these new scenarios or any other security research incentive program, please email us at [email protected].
