+# Security Policy
+
+TriAgen is a portfolio / research project demonstrating AI-security
+engineering patterns for SOC alert triage. It is **not hardened for
+production use as-is** — in particular, review `triagen_core/guardrails/`
+and the trust-boundary design in `triagen_core/reasoning_engine.py` yourself
+before pointing the optional LLM backend at any real environment.
+
+## Scope
+
+This project's threat model is: an alert pipeline that ingests untrusted,
+potentially attacker-controlled text (raw logs, command lines) and must
+reason over it without that content being able to influence its own
+control flow or verdict. See the README's "Security Design" section for
+details.
+
+## Reporting a vulnerability
+
+If you find a security issue in this repository — a prompt-injection
+bypass, an enrichment heuristic that's trivially evadable, a dependency
+CVE, or anything else — please open a GitHub issue on this repository.
+This is a personal project; there is no bug bounty.
