Game consoles have always been the focus of hackers. Several major game consoles of the current generation, including Nintendo Switch and Sony PS4, have all been cracked to varying degrees.

Sony's new generation game console PlayStation 5 has been confirmed to be officially released during the Christmas holiday this year. In order not to repeat its previous mistakes, Sony officially launched a new PlayStation BUG bounty program today. If any developers or users discover PS system and Sony will provide a cash reward of US$50,000 for major security vulnerabilities in online services.

It is reported that Sony has paid more than $174,000 in rewards to hackers who discovered PS vulnerabilities. This also ensures that although PS4 consoles have been cracked, they are not as widespread as Switch. However, some consumers believe that after the release of the new generation of game consoles, other vulnerabilities of the PS4 console will also be disclosed one after another, after all, it has passed its life cycle.
