+```
+
+## Security Events
+
+All events logged to `mcp_security.log`:

+# Security Policy
+
+## Our Commitment
+
+ContextGuard is a security tool designed to protect MCP servers from various attack vectors. We take the security of ContextGuard itself very seriously. If you discover a security vulnerability, we appreciate your help in disclosing it to us responsibly.
+
+## Supported Versions
+
+We release patches for security vulnerabilities for the following versions:
+
+| Version | Supported          |
+| ------- | ------------------ |
+| 0.1.x   | :white_check_mark: |
+| < 0.1   | :x:                |
+
+## What We Protect Against
+
+ContextGuard currently detects and prevents:
+
+### High Severity Threats
+
+- **Prompt Injection Attacks**: 8+ patterns including instruction hijacking, role manipulation, and context escape attempts
+- **Sensitive Data Leakage**: API keys, passwords, private keys, SSH keys, database credentials, social security numbers
+- **Path Traversal Attacks**: Unauthorized file system access attempts using relative paths or escape sequences
+
+### Medium Severity Threats
+
+- **Rate Limit Violations**: Prevents abuse through excessive requests
+- **Suspicious Input Patterns**: Anomalous request structures that may indicate reconnaissance
+
+### Logging & Monitoring
+
+- **Comprehensive Event Logging**: All security events logged with timestamps and severity levels
+- **Forensic Analysis**: Detailed logs for post-incident investigation
+
+## Known Limitations
+
+ContextGuard is a defense-in-depth tool and should not be your only security measure:
+
+### Current Limitations
+
+- **Evasion Techniques**: Sophisticated attackers may use encoding, obfuscation, or novel patterns to bypass detection
+- **False Positives**: Some legitimate requests may be flagged as suspicious
+- **Performance**: While overhead is <1%, extremely high-throughput scenarios should be tested
+- **Transport Support**: Currently only stdio transport is fully supported (SSE/HTTP in development)
+
+### Not Protected Against
+
+- **Zero-day MCP vulnerabilities**: Unknown vulnerabilities in the MCP protocol itself
+- **Server-side vulnerabilities**: Bugs in your MCP server implementation
+- **Network-level attacks**: DDoS, man-in-the-middle (requires network-level protection)
+- **Compromised dependencies**: Supply chain attacks in your MCP server's dependencies
+
+## Reporting a Vulnerability
+
+**Please DO NOT report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues.**
+
+### How to Report
+

+
+We use the following severity scale:
+
+| Severity     | Description                                        | Response Time   |
+| ------------ | -------------------------------------------------- | --------------- |
+| **Critical** | Remote code execution, complete bypass of security | Immediate (24h) |
+| **High**     | Unauthorized data access, privilege escalation     | 3-7 days        |
+| **Medium**   | Denial of service, partial bypass                  | 7-14 days       |
+| **Low**      | Minor information disclosure, edge cases           | 14-30 days      |
+
+## Security Best Practices
+
+When using ContextGuard:
+
+### Deployment Recommendations
+
+1. **Defense in Depth**
+
+   ```bash
+   # Use ContextGuard as ONE layer of security
+   # Also implement:
+   # - Network firewalls
+   # - Rate limiting at API gateway
+   # - Authentication/authorization
+   # - Input validation in your MCP server
+   ```
+
+2. **Configuration Security**
+
+   ```json
+   {
+     "maxToolCallsPerMinute": 30,
+     "enablePromptInjectionDetection": true,
+     "enableSensitiveDataDetection": true,
+     "allowedFilePaths": ["/safe/directory/only"],
+     "logLevel": "info"
+   }
+   ```
+
+3. **Least Privilege**
+
+   - Run ContextGuard with minimal required permissions
+   - Restrict file system access to only necessary directories
+   - Use environment variables for secrets, never hardcode
+
+4. **Regular Updates**
+
+   ```bash
+   # Check for updates regularly
+   npm update -g contextguard
+
+   # Subscribe to security advisories
+   npm audit
+   ```
+
+5. **Monitor Logs**
+
+   ```bash
+   # Review security logs regularly
+   tail -f mcp_security.log | grep "SECURITY_VIOLATION"
+
+   # Set up alerts for HIGH severity events
+   ```
+
+### Testing Security
+
+Before production deployment:
+
+```bash
+# 1. Test with known attack patterns
+contextguard --server "node test-server.js" --config test-security.json
+
+# 2. Review logs for false positives
+cat mcp_security.log | jq 'select(.severity == "HIGH")'
+
+# 3. Performance testing
+# Ensure <1% overhead in your specific environment
+
+# 4. Backup and recovery
+# Test your incident response plan
+```
+
+## Security Audit History
+
+| Date | Auditor | Scope         | Status  |
+| ---- | ------- | ------------- | ------- |
+| TBD  | TBD     | Full codebase | Planned |
+
+We plan to conduct regular security audits as the project matures.
+
+## Security-Related Configuration
+
+### Example Production Configuration
+
+```json
+{
+  "maxToolCallsPerMinute": 30,
+  "enablePromptInjectionDetection": true,
+  "enableSensitiveDataDetection": true,
+  "enablePathTraversalPrevention": true,
+  "allowedFilePaths": ["/var/app/data", "/home/user/safe-directory"],
+  "blockedPatterns": [
+    "ignore previous instructions",
+    "system prompt",
+    "confidential"
+  ],
+  "logLevel": "info",
+  "logFile": "/var/log/mcp_security.log",
+  "alertWebhook": "https://your-monitoring-service.com/webhook"
+}
+```
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+Never store secrets in configuration files:
+
+```bash
+# Good
+export MCP_API_KEY="your-key-here"
+contextguard --server "node server.js"
+
+# Bad
+# Don't hardcode secrets in config files or code
+```
