Agile development helps get products to market faster than ever, but it’s outpacing the ability of security teams to keep up. Organizations now need a way to expand risk reduction efforts beyond the typical software development lifecycle. They need the help of a global community.
This report explores the strategic, legal, and social nuances of vulnerability disclosure programs (VDPs). Drawing on industry expertise and the results of a recent Bugcrowd survey, it covers:
- Why every organization needs a VDP
- Best practices for launching and managing your first VDP
- How a policy of coordinated disclosure can improve security and consumer reputation
- How to expand your program to incentivize more high value vulnerabilities
