* **Your program has finalized a decision on the report.** No further discussion is necessary on the report and locking it will prevent any more comments from arising.

* **The report is publicly disclosed.** If a report has been publicly disclosed, continued discussion on the report may lead to accidental disclosure of private information. For instance, if the reporter finds the fix to be inadequate afterwards and discusses it on the report, the details of the unpatched vulnerability will be exposed to the entire Internet. The recommended path of action would be to file a new report with the new findings. Locking a report to disable further commenting on the disclosed report would have effectively prevented the accidental disclosure.

After a report has been locked, the hacker can no longer comment on the report, but can still request or agree to public disclosure or request mediation. Your program team members can still comment both publicly and privately on the report.
