Security company 3Com TippingPoint has jacked up to $100,000 (£65,000) the prize money on offer to anyone able to hack a range of browsers and mobile devices at the forthcoming CanSecWest security conference.
attackers can't use third-party plug-ins such as Adobe Flash on day one of the event. These are often a soft underbelly, so excluding them raises the bar.
Part two of the contest, account for the remaining $60,000, will ask contestants to successfully hack the Apple iPhone, Blackberry Bold 9700, the Nokia/Symbian S60, and an unspecified Motorola device running Android, with each worth $15,000.
