Episode 43 – Not all vulnerabilities are created equal with Tanya Janca


Listen Later

Vulnerability disclosure is one of those things that either brings a smile or a scowl to your face, depending on what end of the disclosure you're on.  For some, it's a thing of pride, and hopefully a monetary reward!  For others, it's a punch to the gut, fear inducing, "Oh crap!" moment because someone has shown you a flaw you weren't aware of.

But what if the disclosure isn't actually a valid vulnerability? That's the topic for this episode discussion, and thankfully I have someone who knows about exactly that!  Tanya Janca joins me to discuss when a vulnerability is not a vulnerability!
