Security Policy v1.0 — March 2026
1. Our Security Commitments
SIBSTIL DOORS SRL commits to the following security standards for Typiq:
- Secure by design: The application uses contextIsolation and sandboxed rendering (Electron security best practices). nodeIntegration is disabled. All IPC communication uses contextBridge.
- No unnecessary data collection: The application does not collect or transmit personal data during offline use.
- Local data only: Progress data and settings are stored locally in the user's profile directory.
- HTTPS only: All network communication from the application and website uses HTTPS with valid certificates.
- Dependency management: We monitor third-party dependencies (Electron, Node.js packages) for known vulnerabilities using automated tools.
- Security support period: Minimum 3 years from purchase date for Personal license holders.
2. Supported Versions
| Version | Status | Security Updates |
|---|---|---|
| 1.x (current) | ✅ Active | Yes — full support |
| Future versions | To be announced | Yes |
We strongly recommend always using the latest version of Typiq to benefit from the most recent security patches.
3. Vulnerability Disclosure Policy
We welcome responsible disclosure of security vulnerabilities. If you discover a security issue in Typiq, please follow the process below.
[SECURITY] Typiq vulnerability report
Please include in your report:
- Description of the vulnerability
- Typiq version affected
- Operating system and version
- Steps to reproduce
- Potential impact assessment (if known)
- Your contact information (for follow-up)
4. Our Response Process

| Within 45 days | Release of patched version and public disclosure (coordinated with reporter) |
We ask that you:
- Do not publicly disclose the vulnerability before we have released a patch (coordinated disclosure)
- Do not exploit the vulnerability beyond what is necessary for proof of concept
- Do not access or modify user data
We will not pursue legal action against researchers who act in good faith and follow this policy.
5. Security Incident Response (CRA Art. 14)
In accordance with the EU Cyber Resilience Act (Regulation 2024/2847) and applicable Romanian cybersecurity law:
- Security incidents affecting Typiq will be reported to DNSC (Directoratul Național de Securitate Cibernetică) within 24 hours of discovery.
- Affected users will be notified within 72 hours of a breach confirmed to affect their data, in accordance with GDPR Art. 33-34.
- A detailed incident report will be provided within 30 days of the incident.
6. Known Security Considerations
Users should be aware of the following:
- License file: The license file (
license.json) is stored in your user profile directory. Do not manually modify this file. Unauthorized modification may result in license deactivation. - macOS Gatekeeper: On macOS, you may see a security warning on first launch. This is normal for applications not distributed through the Mac App Store. Go to System Preferences → Security & Privacy → Open Anyway.
- Windows SmartScreen: Windows may show a SmartScreen warning. Click "More info" → "Run anyway." This occurs because the application is not yet code-signed with an EV certificate.
- Internet connection: The application requires internet access only for license activation. Normal use is fully offline.
7. Third-Party Dependencies
Typiq uses the following major open-source components. We monitor these for security advisories:
| Component | Purpose | Security Monitoring |
|---|---|---|
| Electron v33 | Desktop application framework | GitHub Security Advisories |
| Node.js v22 | Runtime | Node.js Security Releases |
| node-machine-id | Hardware fingerprint | npm audit |
