Google today announced it has paid out over $21 million since launching its bug bounty program in November 2010. In the past year alone, the company distributed $6.5 million to 461 different security researchers, almost double the previous record set in 2018: $3.4 million to 317 different security researchers.

Google breaks down the $6.5 million into four categories: $800,000 for Google Play, $1.0 million for Chrome, $1.9 million for Android, and $2.1 million across other Google products. Google added that security researchers decided to donate an all-time-high of $507,000 to charity in 2019. That’s five times the amount ever previously donated in a single year.
