A few days ago we published a poll asking how much time it typically takes a developer to investigate an OSS vulnerability reported by an SCA tool.

About 70 people responded, a good mix of security and engineering. Here are some interesting insights.

24% reported it takes less than 2 hours 55% reported it takes more than a day

Most of the 24% were security, and most of the 55% were software engineers.

This started a somewhat...heated discussion on our internal Slack.

What do you think is the reason for the difference in perspective on this?
