Responsible Vulnerability Disclosure

Responsible Vulnerability Disclosure is the practice of secretly informing a company or organization about a security weakness in their software or systems before making it public. This approach allows the organization time to fix the issue, reducing the risk of malicious misuse or data breaches. It balances transparency with safety, encouraging collaboration to improve security without exposing users to harm. Essentially, it’s about responsibly sharing security problems to protect everyone involved while promoting trust and integrity in technology systems.
