+# Security at Omarchy
+
+## Report a vulnerability
+
+If you believe you’ve found a security vulnerability in Omarchy, please tell the [Omarchy Security Team](https://omarchy.org/teams/#security) privately so we have an opportunity to investigate and fix it before it is made public.
+
+[security@omarchy.org](mailto:security@omarchy.org?subject=Security%20report)
+
+Please don’t report potential vulnerabilities publicly in GitHub Issues, Discord, or social media before they’ve been resolved.
+
+## What is a vulnerability?
+
+We consider a bug a security vulnerability when it can be exploited to cross a meaningful security boundary: an untrusted or lower-privileged party gains access, permissions, or control they didn’t already have.
+
+Code that could be more robust but does not cross a security boundary is an improvement rather than a security vulnerability. We may still merge a proposed fix and credit the reporter in our release notes.
+
+Eligibility for our [security credits](https://omarchy.org/security/credits/) page depends on whether a report identifies a confirmed security vulnerability, not on its severity.
+
+## What to include
+
+Give us enough information to understand and reproduce the issue:
+
+- The affected component and Omarchy version.
+- An explanation of what an attacker can do before and after exploitation.
+- Steps to reproduce the issue and any proof of concept.
+- Your preferred contact details for follow-up.
+
+## Responsible disclosure
+
+Please act in good faith while investigating and reporting vulnerabilities:
+
+- Only test systems and accounts you own or have explicit permission to test.
+- Avoid privacy violations, disruption, data destruction, and service degradation.
+- Don’t exploit a vulnerability beyond what is needed to demonstrate it.
+- Give us a reasonable opportunity to investigate and address the issue before publishing details.
+
+We’ll review your report and keep you informed as we’re able while we work toward a resolution.
+
+## Credits
+
+Researchers who privately report a confirmed security vulnerability and give us the chance to ship a fix are thanked on the [security credits](https://omarchy.org/security/credits/) page. Accepted improvements that don’t cross a security boundary may still be credited in our release notes.
+
+Credits link to each reporter’s X profile and show their avatar. For duplicate reports, only the first reporter is eligible for credit.
+
+## Regular bugs and support
+
+For anything that isn’t a security vulnerability, please use the [Omarchy issue tracker](https://github.com/omacom/omarchy/issues).
