 ## Reporting a Vulnerability
 
 Please report any potential security issues to `team@nodered.org`. This will notify the core project team who will respond accordingly.
+
+## Escalation
+
+If you do not receive an acknowledgement of your report within 6 business days, or if you cannot find a private security contact for the project, you may escalate to the OpenJS Foundation CNA at `security@lists.openjsf.org`.
+
+If the project acknowledges your report but does not provide any further response or engagement within 14 days, escalation is also appropriate.
