Wow!

A few days ago I posted this article here

https://steempeak.com/infosec/@doifeellucky/to-publish-poc-exploits-or-not

about the question if PoC Exploits should be made public or not including link to the article from threatpost.com with their poll.

The results are in!

So what do you think? Good call or not?

Well, the people have spoken, making these PoC Exploits public, in the right mo, seems to be important and beneficial to most people.

The points that I've brought up like that many of the smaller and not so mature organizations aren't really able to cover their bases and putting pressure on all of cyber sec to "move in the right direction" leaves a general funny taste to me. On the other hand, it's a little like fact denying to expect PoC Exploits not to be "available" to bad actors and knowingly leaving flanks open to these threats.

Let me know what you think down in the comments!

Btw... I really recommend you to visit and use threatpost.com on a regular basis! They've got a bunch of great authors and are always on top of the important cyber sec issues!

Cheers!
Lucky
