Security.txt Generator: Create RFC 9116-Compliant Vulnerability Disclosure Files for Your Website

Establish clear security protocols and enable responsible vulnerability reporting with a standardized security.txt file. The Security.txt Generator simplifies creating RFC 9116-compliant files that help security researchers contact you efficiently and report vulnerabilities through proper channels—strengthening your organization's security posture and trust with the ethical hacking community.

Key Features:

• RFC 9116 Compliance — Generate security.txt files that meet the official IETF RFC 9116 standard, ensuring compatibility with security scanning tools and researcher workflows • Contact Configuration — Specify multiple contact methods including email addresses, phone numbers, and custom contact URLs for vulnerability reporters • Expiration Date Management — Set and customize expiration dates for your security.txt file to ensure freshness and regular policy reviews • Policy Definitions — Configure security policies, acknowledgment procedures, and disclosure timelines to match your organization's incident response capabilities • Well-Known Directory Deployment — Generate ready-to-deploy files formatted for placement in the /.well-known/security.txt directory per RFC standards • Multi-Format Output — Export your configuration in standard text format compatible with all web servers and hosting platforms

How It Works:

• Enter Your Contact Details — Provide primary and secondary contact methods (email, phone, contact form URL) that security researchers can use to report vulnerabilities • Configure Policies — Set expiration dates, acknowledgment preferences, and disclosure timelines that reflect your organization's security practices • Customize Additional Fields — Add optional metadata such as preferred languages, encryption keys, or links to your bug bounty program • Generate File — Click to generate your RFC 9116-compliant security.txt file with all configurations properly formatted • Deploy to /.well-known/ — Copy the generated file to your website's /.well-known/security.txt directory for automatic discovery by security researchers

Common Use Cases:

• Vulnerability Disclosure Programs — Establish official channels for security researchers to responsibly report bugs and security issues before public disclosure • Enterprise Security Policies — Implement standardized vulnerability reporting procedures across your organization to manage incident response efficiently • Bug Bounty Platform Integration — Create security.txt files that link to your bug bounty programs, simplifying researcher participation and compliance tracking • Regulatory Compliance — Meet security disclosure requirements from standards, frameworks, and industry regulations that mandate clear reporting channels • Open Source Project Protection — Help maintainers receive security reports from the community through standardized, professional disclosure procedures • Third-Party Vendor Assessment — Demonstrate security maturity to partners and clients by publishing a formal vulnerability disclosure policy

Privacy & Performance:

• All security.txt generation occurs locally on your device—no data is transmitted to external servers or stored in logs • The tool runs in your browser with no dependencies on remote services, ensuring complete privacy for your security policies • File generation is instantaneous, allowing you to create and test multiple security.txt configurations without delays • Standard text format ensures compatibility with all web servers, CDNs, and hosting platforms without special configuration
