+### Managing security issues
+
+Security issues should ideally be reported through the processes outlined in
+[SECURITY.md][security reporting]. This allows the collaborators to
+appropriately triage the report and address vulnerabilities in a planned
+security release. If an issue is opened in the public repo
+which describes a security issue, or if an issue is later identified to be
+describing a security issue, take the following steps:
+
+* Ask the originator to submit a report through Hacker one as outlined in
+  [SECURITY.md][security reporting].
+* Move the issue to the private repo called
+  [premature-disclosures](https://github.com/nodejs/premature-disclosures).
+* For any related pull requests create an associated issue in the
+  `premature-disclosures` repo and add a copy of the patch for the
+  pull request, and screenshots of discussion on the PR to the issue.
+* Open a ticket with GitHub asking that the PRs be deleted through
+  [GitHub suppport](https://support.github.com/contact)
+  using Node.js(team) as the account organization.
+* Open a new issue in the repository in which the issue was originally
+  reported with a brief FYI to the originator. `FYI @xxxx we asked github
+  to delete your PR while we work on releases in private.` with the title
+  `FYI - PR deleted #YYYY`.
+* Email `tsc@iojs.org` with the link to the issues in the
+  `premature-disclosures` repo so that the TSC is aware that they
+  may need to expedite handling of the issue due to premature
+  disclosure.
