+# Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure Policy
+
+The Cosmos ecosystem believes that strong security is a blend of highly
+technical security researchers who care about security and the forward
+progression of the ecosystem and the attentiveness and openness of Cosmos core
+contributors to help continually secure our operations.
+
+> **IMPORTANT**: *DO NOT* open public issues on this repository for security
+> vulnerabilities.
+

+### Guidelines
+
+We require that all researchers:
+
+* Abide by this policy to disclose vulnerabilities, and avoid posting
+  vulnerability information in public places, including GitHub, Discord,
+  Telegram, and Twitter.
+* Make every effort to avoid privacy violations, degradation of user experience,
+  disruption to production systems (including but not limited to the Cosmos
+  Hub), and destruction of data.
+* Keep any information about vulnerabilities that you’ve discovered confidential
+  between yourself and the Cosmos engineering team until the issue has been
+  resolved and disclosed.
+* Avoid posting personally identifiable information, privately or publicly.
+
+If you follow these guidelines when reporting an issue to us, we commit to:
+
+* Not pursue or support any legal action related to your research on this
+  vulnerability
+* Work with you to understand, resolve and ultimately disclose the issue in a
+  timely fashion
+
+## Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure Policy and Safe Harbor
+
+For the most up-to-date version of the policies that govern vulnerability disclosure, please consult the [HackerOne program page](https://hackerone.com/cosmos?type=team&view_policy=true).
+
+The policy hosted on HackerOne is the official Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure policy and Safe Harbor for the Interchain Stack, and the teams and infrastructure it supports, and it supersedes previous security policies that have been used in the past by individual teams and projects with targets in scope of the program.
