Vulnerability disclosure refers to the process of identifying, reporting and patching weaknesses of software, hardware or services that can be exploited.

Vulnerability Disclosure

Limited/Coordinated/Responsible vulnerability disclosure refers to when an identifier works with a coordinator or vendor to minimise the risk of the identified vulnerability. Once a patch has been developed, the coordinator or vendor will publish the vulnerability information alongside the remediation measures.

In the context of responsible vulnerability disclosure, ENISA coordinated together with the development team of the OpenCTI opensource project the below:
