RE: infosec.exchange/@jerry/115735…

Back when I was important, I saw the common trend of incidents being reported on Fridays or right before holiday breaks. I started asking the reporters (while thanking them) "why did you report it when you did?" and the response was consistent: "I knew this was important and I didn't want it to sit over the weekend/holiday without anyone knowing about it".

I suspect there may be a similar situation with discovered vulnerabilities.


Which firewall vendor will disclose critical vulnerabilities in time to ruin Christmas for many? and why is it probably Fortinet?
