# Security disclosure policy

At Besu, security is a priority. But regardless of how much effort we put into system security, there might still be vulnerabilities present. If you discover a vulnerability, we need to know about it so we can take steps to address it as quickly as possible. We would like you to help us better protect our clients and our systems.

Please follow the process explained on [defect response wiki page](https://wiki.hyperledger.org/display/SEC/Defect+Response).
