Full disclosure
Full disclosure requires that full details of
a security vulnerability are disclosed to the
public, including details of the vulnerability
and how to detect and exploit it. The
theory behind full disclosure is that
releasing vulnerability information
immediately results in better security.
Fixes are produced faster because
vendors and authors are forced to respond
in order to protect their system from
potential attacks as well as to protect their
own image. Security is improved because
the window of exposure, the amount of
time the vulnerability is open to attack, is
reduced. The issue of full disclosure was
first raised in a 19th-century controversy
over the revelation of lock-system
weaknesses to the public. According to A.
