> Enterprise reviewers read your security page before your pricing page. Here is what belongs on it.

A responsible disclosure policy costs an afternoon to publish and removes a recurring question from every enterprise review you will ever run.

Publish four things: a reachable security contact, a scope statement, a safe-harbor commitment for good-faith research, and a response-time expectation you can actually meet.

Pair it with a security.txt file at the well-known path so automated researchers find the contact without guessing.

Then treat it as an operational commitment. A policy with a promised 48-hour acknowledgement and no rotation behind it does more damage than no policy at all.

Buyers read this page as a proxy for engineering maturity. That is a fair reading, and it is cheap to earn.
