A vulnerability disclosure policy (VDP), also referred to as a responsible disclosure policy, describes how an organization will handle reports of vulnerabilities submitted by ethical hackers. A VDP must thus be easily identifiable via a simple way, a security.txt notice.

# If you have identified a security vulnerability affecting IT resources of the bern university of applied science,
# we encourage you to report it via encrypted email to our vunlerability management team.
# We will triage your request to the appropriate entity.
