Considering the success of the previous proposal on [Enhancing the security of Aurora](https://forum.aurora.dev/t/approved-enhance-the-security-of-aurora/171) which enabled successful prevention of some vulnerabilities on the Protocol ([example](https://twitter.com/auroraisnear/status/1537181912732606464)) this proposal aims to extend the security program of Aurora with additional 6 000 000 (six million) $AURORA.

The funds will be used for the following purposes:

- continuing enhancing security and reliability of the Platform as a compensation for reporting bugs, security exploits, vulnerabilities, etc.
- remuneration to and incentivisation of contractors engaged in the Platform technical capabilities’ development;
- research and development activities with the benefit of the Platform;
- audits of the contracts

The funds to be distributed from DAO balance for future projects bucket according to the token distribution document

Glad to see this renewal of Aurora’s security program being proposed. It’s a crucial use of funds to enhance the long-term security of the protocol.

Oho, that’s a massive one! Great opportunity for white hat hackers.  
Thanks for bringing such an effort in terms of security to keep it safe.
