The tech giant Microsoft has just announced a huge reward of $100,000 for hacking the Azure Sphere OS; it is the very first Linux-based operating system of Microsoft, that is focused on the Internet of Things.

This initiative of the tech giant Microsoft is just like the other large technology companies that use to test the security of their operating systems.

This challenge will last three months and makes its hardware, operating system, and cloud components that shape its Azure Sphere platform available to the security experts.

With this challenge, Micorosft simply wants to check the strength of its recent Linux-based operating system, Azure Sphere OS, in terms of security, which, as in other areas, is also vital in the IoT (Internet of Things), where millions of devices can be used in DDoS attacks.
