+## Reporting a Vulnerability

+
+### How to Report
+
+1. Navigate to the **Security** tab of this repository.

+
+Alternatively, you can send an email to **[security@lambdaclass.com](mailto:security@lambdaclass.com)** with the same details.
+
+### Guidelines for Reporting
+
+- **Do not publicly disclose vulnerabilities** until we have confirmed and fixed the issue.
+- Include any proof-of-concept code, if possible, to help us verify the vulnerability more efficiently.
+- If applicable, specify if the vulnerability is already being exploited.
+
+### Our Response Process
+
+- We commit to handling reports with diligence.
+- We will investigate all reported vulnerabilities thoroughly and transparently.
+- Once the vulnerability has been fixed, we will disclose the details publicly to ensure awareness and understanding.
+
+
+### Reward Program
