Intel Appears To End Its Bug Bounty Program

Intel appears to have quietly ended its paid bug bounty program, which had offered rewards from $500 to $100,000 for reported vulnerabilities across hardware, software, firmware, and open-source projects. The program hosted on Intigriti now shows as suspended, and Intel has launched a new responsible disclosure program on the same platform that explicitly offers no bounties. Intel has not officially explained the change, though speculation points to the surge in AI/LLM-generated security reports currently overwhelming the Linux kernel and other open-source projects.
