Security and Vulnerability Disclosure

We sell certificate lifecycle management. Our own security baseline has to set the example.

Reporting a vulnerability

Email security@nextpki.com, encrypted with our PGP key (fingerprint: to be published).

A machine-readable version is at /.well-known/security.txt per RFC 9116.

Scope

In scope:

  • *.nextpki.com
  • The open-source sensor (source available at our GitHub organisation)
  • The NextPKI console and API

Out of scope:

  • Third-party services we use (please report to them directly)
  • Findings that require physical access, social engineering, or denial of service
  • Self-XSS and missing security headers on non-production hosts

Safe harbour

Good-faith security research conducted under this policy will not result in legal action from Datargo GmbH. We ask that you:

  • Make a good-faith effort to avoid privacy violations, data destruction, and service interruption
  • Give us reasonable time to fix issues before public disclosure (90 days by default)
  • Do not access more data than is necessary to demonstrate the issue

Response targets

  • Triage acknowledgement: 5 business days
  • Initial severity assessment: 10 business days
  • Coordinated disclosure window: 90 days from acknowledgement, extendable by mutual agreement
