What is security.txt?

Security.txt is a simple text file containing your contact information that you place on your web server. This file makes it easy for cybersecurity researchers to reach you, enabling you to protect your company and take swift action in the event of a cyber threat. With security.txt, notifications go directly to the appropriate person.

Implementing security.txt in 3 simple steps:

1. Determine the Recipient: Decide who should receive the notifications—your company or your IT service provider.
2. Create the File: Visit securitytxt.org, fill out the form, and generate the text file. This file will contain the contact address for security vulnerabilities and the expiration date.
3. Deploy the File: On your web server, create a directory named .well-known and place the file there.
