+# Security
+
+This document specifies the security process for the SwiftPrometheus project.
+
+## Disclosures
+
+### Private Disclosure Process
+
+The SwiftPrometheus maintainers ask that known and suspected vulnerabilities be
+privately and responsibly disclosed by emailing
+[[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])
+with the all the required detail.
+**Do not file a public issue.**
+
+#### When to report a vulnerability
+
+* You think you have discovered a potential security vulnerability in SwiftPrometheus.
+* You are unsure how a vulnerability affects SwiftPrometheus.
+
+#### What happens next?
+
+* A member of the team will acknowledge receipt of the report within 3
+  working days (United States). This may include a request for additional
+  information about reproducing the vulnerability.
+* We will privately inform the Swift Server Work Group ([SSWG][sswg]) of the
+  vulnerability within 10 days of the report as per their [security
+  guidelines][sswg-security].
+* Once we have identified a fix we may ask you to validate it. We aim to do this
+  within 30 days. In some cases this may not be possible, for example when the
+  vulnerability exists at the protocol level and the industry must coordinate on
+  the disclosure process.
+* If a CVE number is required, one will be requested from [MITRE][mitre]
+  providing you with full credit for the discovery.
+* We will decide on a planned release date and let you know when it is.
+* Prior to release, we will inform major dependents that a security-related
+  patch is impending.
+* Once the fix has been released we will publish a security advisory on GitHub
+  and in the Server → Security Updates category on the [Swift forums][swift-forums-sec].
