Analyze the responsiveness of vendors to security problems without public pressure and evaluate the impact of full disclosure on problem-solving. Examine successes and failures of each method, and consider necessary steps to address the issue of vulnerability management. Engage in a thought-provoking exploration of this contentious topic in cybersecurity, led by Jeremy Rauch, as it sparks interesting discussions on balancing transparency and security in the digital landscape.
