folks, as it was announced few minutes ago that "3Com launches vulnerability-buying program" (through TippingPoint, a company 3Com acquired earlier this year) http://www.securityfocus.com/news/11253 http://www.zerodayinitiative.com/ so what do you think about this step? Obviously, they are trying to fight public disclosure of security vunl's (that why bugtraq exists) and buy the information so they can have 0day signatures to TippingPoint IPS solution.
