Marten Mickos, CEO of HackerOne, which runs vulnerability disclosure programs, said that there were \u201chundreds of thousands\u201d of security researchers waiting to help federal agencies. Leaders at companies that run VDPs have long <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fifthdomain.com\/show-reporters\/black-hat\/2019\/08\/23\/how-can-the-government-improve-its-cyber-posture\/\" target=_blank>said the government needed to take this step. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBy taking this action, the federal government is putting the U.S. among the leading nations when it comes to cybersecurity of government systems,&#8221; Mickos said. &#8220;DHS and the Office of Management and Budget are setting this standard by inviting ethical hackers to look for vulnerabilities in their systems on an ongoing basis.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Binding operational directives are one of few means CISA has to actually mandate organizations take actions \u2014 many of its programs rely largely on voluntary participation. If this draft directive was implemented, agency systems developed after the agency VDP is established must be \u201cin scope\u201d of the the program, meaning that security researchers must be allowed to probe for and submit vulnerabilities. Agencies would also have to add a new system to the program every 90 days until all of its internet-accessible programs are included, and all systems must be included after two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Manfra also emphasized that CISA was not mandating a bug bounty program, in which security researchers get paid for their findings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The public comment period will last until Dec. 27 and can be accessed on CISA\u2019s GitHub page.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DHS&#8217;s cyber
