BSA doubles reward for whistleblowers to £20k
28 August 2012
The Business Software Alliance (BSA) in the UK has doubled to £20,000 the maximum reward it will pay people who report the use of illegal software.
Previously, the BSA, a global organisation of major software companies and hardware producers, has given 10 per cent of the value of any software recovered, with a ceiling of £10,000, to anyone who reports illegal usage in an organisation.
Until the end of the year, the ceiling will be £20,000 and then return to £10,000.
