# TACo Access Control
|
|
|
|
TACo (Threshold Access Control) is end-to-end encrypted data sharing and communication, without the requirement of
|
|
trusting a centralized authority, who might unilaterally deny service or even decrypt private user data. It is the only
|
|
access control layer available to Web3 developers that can offer a decentralized service, through a live,
|
|
well-collateralized and battle-tested network. See more here: [https://docs.threshold.network/applications/threshold-access-control](https://docs.threshold.network/applications/threshold-access-control)

All our development discussions happen in our [Discord server](https://discord.gg/7rmXa3S), where we're happy to answer
|
|
technical questions, discuss feature requests,
|
|
and accept bug reports.
|
|

# Security
|
|
|
|
If you identify vulnerabilities with _any_ nucypher code, please email security@nucypher.com with relevant information
|
|
to your findings.
|
|
We will work with researchers to coordinate vulnerability disclosure between our stakers, partners, and users to ensure
|
|
successful mitigation of vulnerabilities.
|
|
|
|
Throughout the reporting process, we expect researchers to honor an embargo period that may vary depending on the
|
|
severity of the disclosure.
|
|
This ensures that we have the opportunity to fix any issues, identify further issues (if any), and inform our users.
|
|
|
|
Sometimes vulnerabilities are of a more sensitive nature and require extra precautions.
|
|
We are happy to work together to use a more secure medium, such as Signal.
|
|
Email security@nucypher.com and we will coordinate a communication channel that we're both comfortable with.
|
|
|
|
A great place to begin your research is by working on our testnet.
|
|
Please see our [documentation](https://docs.threshold.network) to get started.
|
|
We ask that you please respect testnet machines and their owners.
|
|
If you find a vulnerability that you suspect has given you access to a machine against the owner's permission, stop what
|
|
you're doing and immediately email security@nucypher.com.
