The controversy around the public disclosure of sensitive information is not new. The issue of full disclosure was first raised in the context of locksmithing, in a 19th-century controversy regarding whether weaknesses in lock systems should be kept secret in the locksmithing community, or revealed to the public.

Kerckhoffs's principle (also called Kerckhoffs's desideratum, assumption, axiom, doctrine or law) of cryptography was stated by Dutch-born cryptographer Auguste Kerckhoffs in the 19th century. The principle holds that a cryptosystem should be secure, even if everything about the system, except the key , is public knowledge.
Full Disclosure is a "lightly moderated" security mailing list generally used for discussion about information security and disclosure of vulnerabilities. The list was created on July 9, 2002, by Len Rose and also administered by him, who later handed it off to John Cartwright.
Information security (shortened as InfoSec) is the ongoing process of exercising due diligence to protect information, and information systems, from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, destruction, modification, disruption or distribution, through algorithms and procedures focused on monitoring and detection, as well as incident response and ...
In computer security, coordinated vulnerability disclosure (CVD, formerly known as responsible disclosure) [1] is a vulnerability disclosure model in which a vulnerability or an issue is disclosed to the public only after the responsible parties have been allowed sufficient time to patch or remedy the vulnerability or issue. [2]
Precision tests of QED have been performed in low-energy atomic physics experiments, high-energy collider experiments, and condensed matter systems. The value of α is obtained in each of these experiments by fitting an experimental measurement to a theoretical expression (including higher-order radiative corrections) that includes α as a parameter.
The equivalence principle is the hypothesis that this numerical equality of inertial and gravitational mass is a consequence of their fundamental identity. [1]: 32 The equivalence principle can be considered an extension of the principle of relativity, the principle that the laws of physics are invariant under uniform motion
Their results are consistent with the predictions of special relativity. Collections of various tests were given by Jakob Laub, [1] Zhang, [2] Mattingly, [3] Clifford Will, [4] and Roberts/Schleif. [5] Special relativity is restricted to flat spacetime, i.e., to all phenomena without significant influence of gravitation.
