Description

This good practice guidance aims to provide policy makers with an overarching understanding of the co-ordination of digital security vulnerabilities in practice, while avoiding technical jargon and detailed considerations. It may also help technical security experts to communicate with policy makers and non-technical experts in their organisation such as CEOs, board members, communication, and legal departments, etc. This document is expected to be sufficiently consistent with technical standards and other guides targeting technical experts in this area, does not aim to replace them, but rather helps raise awareness about their existence and the need for practitioners to use them.
