Abstract :
The author remarks that there seems to be no nationwide, organized, widely known system that controls the security flaw information disclosure process and maximizes the dissemination or fix implementation rate of flaw or fix information. He explores various facets of this problem and examines current practices and alternative approaches for the future. Specifically, he explores the most prevalent nonexhaustive actions and responsibilities by each of the groups of interested parties
