Reporter Association

The Reporter Association question gives you the option to require a reporter to self-identify their relationship to your company, when submitting a vulnerability through the submission form.

Researchers will have the options to self-identify as:

  • Not Related: Not related to your organization.
  • Customer: A customer of your organization.
  • Employee: An employee of your organization.
  • Vendor: A vendor of your organization.
  • Supplier: A supplier of your organization.

If you enable the Reporter Association question, it will reflect as a required field on the submission form.
