+
+## Reporting a Vulnerability
+
+We take security vulnerabilities seriously. If you discover a security issue,
+please report it responsibly.
+
+### How to Report
+
+1. **Do NOT create public GitHub issues** for security vulnerabilities
+2. **Email**: Report vulnerabilities privately via GitHub Security Advisories
+   - Go to the [Security tab](../../security/advisories/new) and create a new advisory
+3. **Include**: A clear description of the vulnerability, steps to reproduce,
+   and potential impact
+
+### What to Expect
+
+- We will acknowledge receipt within 48 hours
+- We aim to provide an initial assessment within 7 days
+- We will keep you informed of our progress
+- We will credit you in the security advisory (if desired)
+
+## Supported Versions

+| Version | Supported          |

+
+## Security Measures
+
+This project implements several security controls:
+
+- **CI/CD Security**: All workflows use explicit least-privilege permissions
+- **Dependency Scanning**: Automated vulnerability scanning via Trivy and Dependabot
+- **Secret Detection**: Pre-commit hooks with Gitleaks for secret scanning
+- **Code Analysis**: CodeQL for static analysis
+- **Container Security**: Hadolint for Dockerfile best practices
+- **Supply Chain**: OpenSSF Scorecard monitoring and SHA-pinned GitHub Actions
