The Anti-Piracy Reward Program is specifically designed to encourage workers to come forward, since employee tips are an invaluable tool in the fight against software piracy. In exchange for providing detailed information about the extent and type of piracy occurring, and cooperating during SIIA's investigation, program participants are entitled to a portion of the fine paid by the offending company."
