+[IMPORTANT]
+.Reporting Security Bugs
+====
+NOTE: To protect existing HBase installations from exploitation, please *do 
not* use JIRA to report security-related bugs. Instead, send your report to the 
mailing list [email protected], which allows anyone to send messages, but 
restricts who can read them. Someone on that list will contact you to follow up 
on your report.
+
+HBase adheres to the Apache Software Foundation's policy on reported 
vulnerabilities, available at http://apache.org/security/.
+
+If you wish to send an encrypted report, you can use the GPG details provided 
for the general ASF security list. This will likely increase the response time 
to your report.
+====
+
 HBase provides mechanisms to secure various components and aspects of HBase 
and how it relates to the rest of the Hadoop infrastructure, as well as clients 
and resources outside Hadoop.
