HSD Responsible Disclosure: Pal Patel Reported a Vulnerability in the Security Talent Website

HSD has a Responsible Disclosure Policy for its IT systems. Recently, Pal Patel (Security Researcher and Ethical Hacker from India) reported a vulnerability in the Security Talent website, showing the importance of having such a policy. It concerns the Content Security Policy (CSP), an added layer of security that helps to detect and mitigate certain types of attacks, which was not implemented. 

 

Our website developer Maaike Media quickly took action and solved the issue. We are very grateful for their expertise and professional response. 

 

The HSD Responsible Disclosure Policy is based on the Guideline Responsible Disclosure published by the NCSC and was introduced after the HSD Café on Ethical Hacking and Responsible Disclosure during the Cyber Security Week 2015.
