# Vulnerability Disclosure Program
The [vulnerability disclosure program (VDP)](https://www.ncsc.gov.uk/information/vulnerability-disclosure-toolkit) is a project that DfE has been onboarding to with the help of NCSC. It involves a toolkit designed to help us make it easier for security researchers to contact the correct teams to report vulnerabilities they've discovered.

All information on [how to report a vulnerability to DfE as part of the VDP](https://www.gov.uk/guidance/report-a-vulnerability-on-a-department-for-education-system) have been posted to our GOV.UK site.

## Ensure the VM team have your current contact information
To make sure that the VM team can contact the right people in your team within a reasonable time period after a disclosure has been sent to them (vulnerability.management@education.gov.uk), we ask that you provide a group email address to them so you can be contacted regardless of leavers/joiners processes.

## Contributing to the security.txt or thanks.txt
The security.txt and thanks.txt files are deployed through Terraform to Azure Storage Blobs as a static site.

Raise a Pull Request (PR) against the repository if you want to suggest improvements to the files or deployment. A member of CISD will review and approve PRs, which will trigger a GitHub Actions pipeline to redeploy the changes.
If a security researcher has requested a bounty, ensure you state that we do not provide monetary bounties but will be happy to list their name under our acknowledgements page (`thanks.txt`). This can be done whether the notification was through the VDP or not. You can either request the change from the VM team or raise a PR directly.
