In this episode of Apple @ Work, 9to5Mac’s Arin Waichulis joins host Bradley C to discuss Apple’s decision to implement cool-down periods on its bug bounty submission program. The move comes amid a surge in AI-generated security findings, prompting Apple to cap the number of reports accepted from individual researchers. The podcast explores how these changes aim to improve the quality and manageability of vulnerability disclosures while maintaining Apple’s commitment to security.
