Dust off your hacker skills, folks, because Microsoft is back at it with its high-stakes hacking event, the Zero Day Quest! Think of it as the Olympics of hacking—with fewer torches and a lot more code.
Starting today and rolling on until October 4th, this year’s event has upped the ante with a whopping $5 million in bounty awards. Yes, you heard that right—$5 million! That’s a cool million more than last year, which means your chance to earn some serious cash while diving into the digital depths has never been better.
But wait, there’s more! Microsoft is offering multiplied bounties for the most critical vulnerabilities across some of their flagship products—looking at you, Azure, Copilot, and Microsoft 365. So, sharpen your pencils (or keyboards)!
And if you qualify, you might just get an exclusive invitation to a live hacking showdown at Microsoft HQ in spring 2026. It’s like Hunger Games, but way cooler and with less dystopia.
So grab your best hacker friends and get ready to hunt down those bugs—because big bucks and bragging rights await the best of the best!
