+## Reporting a Vulnerability
+MONAI takes security seriously and appreciate your efforts to responsibly disclose vulnerabilities. If you discover a security issue, please report it as soon as possible.
+
+To report a security issue:
+* please use the GitHub Security Advisories tab to "[Open a draft security advisory](https://github.com/Project-MONAI/MONAI/security/advisories/new)".
+* Include a detailed description of the issue, steps to reproduce, potential impact, and any possible mitigations.
+* If applicable, please also attach proof-of-concept code or screenshots.
+* We aim to acknowledge your report within 72 hours and provide a status update as we investigate.
+* Please do not create public issues for security-related reports.
+
+## Disclosure Policy
+* We follow a coordinated disclosure approach.
+* We will not publicly disclose vulnerabilities until a fix has been developed and released.
+* Credit will be given to researchers who responsibly disclose vulnerabilities, if requested.
+## Acknowledgements
