In this policy, references to "Veracode", "us", "we" and "our" mean Veracode, Inc., a privately held company, and our global subsidiaries: Veracode Limited, Veracode Securities Corporation, SourceClear Pte. Ltd., and SourceClear, Inc.
Veracode was founded on the idea that companies should be able to access technology that allows them to scan their software for vulnerabilities so that they can identify them, fix them and improve their security. Since that time, we have created new technologies and services to enable our customers to scan for flaws in along the entire software development lifecycle, seeing results in seconds or minutes, to allow them to code securely while also remaining on schedule with continuous release cycles.
Veracode envisions a world where the software fueling our economic growth and solving society's greatest challenges is developed secure from the start.
We value transparency in the security industry and openness with sharing information that could improve security for every organization. Veracode is committed to engaging the research community in a professional, positive and agreeable manner that protects our company and our customers.
As such, we encourage and welcome anyone who believes he or she has identified a vulnerability to contact us with security concerns or pertinent information to the integrity, functionality or confidentiality of our software.
The terms below apply to any website, application or service distributed by or hosted by Veracode, Inc.
Please use the email address security-alerts@veracode.com to alert us to:
- Vulnerabilities or breaches in our software or environments which threaten the confidentiality, integrity or availability of our data, software, or services, or our customers’ data
- Applications that mimic, mislabel, misdirect, or "copycat" Veracode, or phishing attacks even if they do not originate from Veracode sources
- Written or verbal discussion, activities, or data in any public forum which you believe constitutes a threat to Veracode, our employees or our customers

Veracode’s response
Veracode has taken measures to ensure that reports of this nature are treated with high value and can be responded to quickly and effectively. Veracode commits to responding to credible vulnerability disclosures that provide the required information within 48 business hours.
We will not respond to:
- Hoaxes or anonymous reports

Recognition
Veracode believes in coordinated disclosure with regard to vulnerabilities that have been reported to us and fixed. We expect professional conduct and will seek to agree on reasonable timelines for updates and coordination with security researchers and others who may report vulnerabilities.
While we will work diligently to address vulnerabilities, we will work with you to set expectations on timeline for fixing a vulnerability and do not adhere to specific windows of time for either fixes or updates to the person who filed the report. We will disclose publicly alongside anyone who makes a report that helps us ensure our technologies, data and employees are secure. At this time, we are not offering financial compensation for vulnerability reports.
