Important note: for any immediate security report please proceed to our report page.
The security of the Rabi.foundation blockchain, and associated core components, is a top priority for Rabi.foundation. Our Proof of Stake network is secured by considerable amounts of RABI and provides valuable services for business or private use. Our mission is to become a layer of trust for digital financial systems at internet scale, and the highest level of security is a mandatory prerequisite.
The security researcher community regularly makes valuable contributions to the security of organizations and the broader Internet, and Rabi.foundation recognizes that fostering a close relationship with the community will help improve the security of the Rabi.foundation blockchain. So if you have information about a vulnerability in the Rabi.foundation blockchain and associated components, we want to hear from you.
Reporting a Security Issue
Please DO send an email to info[@]Rabi.foundation
Please DO NOT open public issues on Github that contain information about a potential security vulnerability as this makes it difficult to reduce the impact of valid security issues.
What to include:

• Well-written reports in English will have a higher chance of being accepted
• Reports that include proof of concept code will be more likely to be accepted
• Reports that include only crash dumps or other automated tool output will most likely not be accepted
• Reports that include products & services that are out of scope (see the Scope section below) will not be considered
• Include how you found the bug, the impact, and any potential remediation
• Any plans for public disclosure

What you can expect from us:

• A timely response to your email (within 2 business days).
• An open dialog to discuss issues.
• Credit after the vulnerability has been validated and fixed.

Coordinated Responsible Disclosure Policy

We ask security researchers to keep vulnerabilities and communications around vulnerability submissions private and confidential until a patch is developed to protect the Rabi.foundation blockchain and its users.
Please do:

• Allow the Rabi.foundation team a reasonable amount of time address security vulnerabilities
• Avoid exploiting any vulnerabilities that you discover
• Demonstrate good faith by not disrupting or degrading Rabi.foundation services, products & data

Rabi.foundation pledges not to initiate legal action against researchers as long as they adhere to this policy.
