Hi Dave,

Although you're stating that TippingPoint won't notify about or use vulnerabilities that the offer for them wasn't 
accepted, are you still going to use it to provide protection through your product?

Regards,

Evgeny

Hey Halvar,

By our own standards, 3Com cannot use any vulnerability information or
report it to anyone until it is officially purchased.  We have more to
lose from a trust and legal standpoint:

http://www.zerodayinitiative.com/benefits.html

"If an offer is not made or an offer is made but not accepted by the
researcher, the vulnerability information will remain the property of the
researcher and will not be used in the Zero Day Initiative (ZDI) program."

Hey all,

I have a question regarding the program:

Let's assume for some reason the ZDI's bid is too low, what happens with
the information ? Is there any guarantee that ZDI does not pass the
submitted information to software vendors and/or government organisations
without having paid ? It's going to be very tricky to legally enforce
security problems as IP.

CHeers,
Halvar
