The established security research norm of privately notifying an organization of a discovered governance or security gap, with a reasonable window to remediate, before any broader or public disclosure, balancing the risk of the gap remaining unaddressed against the risk of publicizing it before a fix exists.
A common synonym for coordinated vulnerability disclosure, emphasizing the discloser's ethical duty to maximize the fix and minimize the harm.
The professional norm, modeled by the Carlini et al. research team, of notifying the party positioned to fix a discovered vulnerability before making that vulnerability public, applied inside an organization as escalating a confirmed poisoning finding through proper channels before wider disclosure.
