Pge Vulnerability Disclosure

Vulnerability disclosure

PG&E publishes a full vulnerability disclosure policy for security researchers, covering authorization/safe-harbour, guidelines, prohibited test methods, scope, reporting channel and response commitments. It is NOT advertised through /.well-known/security.txt (RFC 9116) — that path returns HTTP 404 on www.pge.com, api.pge.com and sharemydata.pge.com — so the policy is discoverable only from the corporate site.

Pacific Gas and Electric runs a coordinated vulnerability disclosure program on Hackerone. A dedicated security contact is published.
