I work for software security companies, and have for years. This is the number one way they tell you to evaluate a company’s security - how they disclose and protect their users of breaches, regardless of how it makes them look in the moment.
That’s a really good point. When I did my initial investigation into Wyze, I was actually impressed with the work they were doing – especially in comparison to other companies that I had looked into. Discreet security certs on each device was light years ahead of the failures I ahd seen from supposedly trusted brands. But, when a mistake does happen, we need to know immediately so we can take protective actions.
