## Health v2 (maintenance only)
Score: 76/100 (v2, computed 2026-09-02T17:46:02.011165+00:00)
- activity 97, release rhythm 35, longevity 100
- inputs: {"age_days": 3030, "days_push": 22, "days_rel": null, "gap_med": null, "n_releases_24m": 0}
- flags: no_releases
- formula: round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10)

## What it is
An open, CC0-licensed dataset of vulnerability disclosure programs (VDPs) and bug bounty programs, including their safe-harbor status, policy URLs, and security contacts. It powers the searchable directory at directory.disclose.io and is maintained via community pull requests to program-list.json.

## Use cases
- find the security contact for a website or company
- look up whether a bug bounty program offers safe harbor
- check a vendor's vulnerability disclosure policy before reporting a bug
- download a JSON list of all known VDP and bug bounty programs
- research safe-harbor adoption across organizations
- add or correct a company's disclosure program in an open dataset

## When to choose
- you are a security researcher deciding where and how to safely report a vulnerability
- you need bulk, version-controlled data on disclosure programs for analysis or tooling
- you want to verify an organization's safe-harbor and maturity status

## When to avoid
- you need a live searchable UI rather than raw data - use directory.disclose.io instead
- you need legal advice on disclosure - the maturity scores are explicitly not legal advice
- you want an automated vulnerability scanning or reporting tool - this is only a directory

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: security, search-engine, json
- domain: security, privacy, developer-tools
- platform: python
- tags: vulnerability-disclosure, bug-bounty, safe-harbor, vdp, responsible-disclosure, security-txt, open-data, web-server
