We're planning to launch a bug bounty program in the future. Check back for updates.

For now, please report vulnerabilities directly to our security team.

1. Never share your Bitcoin private keys - ReserveBTC never asks for them
2. Verify signatures yourself - Use your own Bitcoin wallet
3. Monitor your FeeVault balance - Keep at least 0.001 ETH to prevent emergency burns
4. Check Oracle status - Visit oracle.reservebtc.io/status

1. Use environment variables - Never hardcode secrets
2. Validate all inputs - Client and server-side
3. Follow CEI pattern - Checks-Effects-Interactions
4. Test thoroughly - Run all 350 security tests
5. Monitor production - Watch for unusual patterns

1. Secure API keys - Rotate regularly
2. Rate limiting - Implement on your side
3. Error handling - Don't expose sensitive data
4. Audit logs - Keep complete records

In case of a security incident, our team will:

1. Acknowledge within 1 hour for critical issues
2. Investigate root cause and impact
3. Contain the incident to prevent further damage
