+
+## Reporting a Vulnerability
+
+The `osctrl` project takes security vulnerabilities seriously.
+
+If you believe you have found a security issue in `osctrl`, **please do not open a public GitHub issue**.
+
+Instead, report it responsibly by emailing:
+
+📧 <osctrl-security@jmpsec.com>
+
+Please include:
+
+- A clear description of the vulnerability
+- Steps to reproduce (proof of concept if possible)
+- Affected versions or components
+- Potential impact (e.g., RCE, privilege escalation, data exposure)
+- Any suggested mitigation or fix (if available)
+
+We will acknowledge receipt of your report as soon as possible and work with you to assess and remediate the issue.
+
+---
+
+## Supported Versions
+
+Security fixes are provided for the **latest released version** of `osctrl`.
+
+Users are strongly encouraged to keep their deployments up to date and follow release notes closely, especially for **breaking changes** and security-related updates.
+
+---
+
+## Disclosure Policy
+
+We follow a **responsible disclosure** process:
+
+- Reporters will receive confirmation of the vulnerability report.
+- We will investigate and validate the issue.
+- We will work on a fix and coordinate a release.
+- Public disclosure will occur **after a fix is available**, or in coordination with the reporter when appropriate.
+
+We appreciate responsible disclosure and will credit reporters when possible (unless anonymity is requested).
+
+---
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+`osctrl` is a security-sensitive system that manages endpoint telemetry and remote query execution. Operators should take care to:
+
+- Secure API endpoints and credentials
+- Use TLS and strong authentication mechanisms
+- Restrict access to administrative interfaces
+- Monitor logs and audit trails
+- Apply upgrades promptly, especially for security-related releases
+
+---
+
+## Third-Party Dependencies
+
+`osctrl` relies on third-party open source components. Dependency updates and security fixes are regularly tracked and applied.
+
+If a vulnerability is discovered in a third-party dependency that affects `osctrl`, it should be reported following the same process above.
+
+---
+
+## Acknowledgements
+
+We thank the security community for helping keep `osctrl` and its users safe.
