Abstract
Latvia decided to draft Regulation on responsible disclosure procedure. In March 2016, the Ministry of Defence created a working group. The goal of the drafters was: 1) to prepare amendment to Law on the Security of Information Systems to create legislative framework for responsible vulnerability disclosure process; 2) to draft an amendment to Section 241 (3) of Criminal Law to create a guaranty against prosecution (waiver) for persons who act in accordance with responsible disclosure process. The paper provides an insight into this process, difficulties faced by drafters and presents provisional results of the legislative draft and lessons to be learnt.
