Our team is now officially in the Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure (CVD) Hall of Fame of the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI). The BSI uses this list to honor groups that report security flaws to the affected vendors and operators in a responsible way. This work raises the level of security in Germany.
What It Means to Be Listed
CVD is a set process. Security researchers report flaws to the people in charge, in a planned and private way, before any details go public. The BSI guides this process. Its Hall of Fame lists those who have done a lot to protect critical and widely used systems. For background, read our article on the BSI CVD guidelines.
Why It Matters to Us
- Acting responsibly: Reporting through CVD protects those affected. It does not hand attackers a roadmap.
- Safety for many: Each flaw that is reported and patched lowers the risk for all users.
- How we work: The award also confirms our team culture. Clean, research-driven work and ethical conduct go hand in hand.
Thank You to Everyone Involved
We thank our customers and partners. They trust us to work deeply and carefully in their systems. We also thank the BSI for a fair and professional CVD process.
Conclusion
Being listed is not the end goal. It drives us to keep helping, in a steady and responsible way, to secure our digital infrastructure. To learn more about the BSI CVD process, visit the BSI website.
