Can I Get Sued for Reporting a Security Issue?
•

If you haven't lied about what you report, you shouldn't be concern. But the possibility of a lawsuit should make you think twice of carrying out a vendetta by reporting false information - because that could result in both a lawsuit, and an employment issue.
