  `0 iodef "mailto:security@hyatt.com"` (RFC 8659 incident-reporting address), captured in

      Live program page. The body is client-side rendered, so the policy detail (current
      bounty table, safe-harbour text) was not machine-readable at probe time; presence and
      ownership are confirmed by the first-party release above.

    status: 403
    note: >-
      Hyatt serves no RFC 9116 security.txt that we could read; the customer-facing hyatt.com
      hosts answer an edge bot challenge (403, Hyatt error E6020) on every path, so this is
      recorded as unknown rather than as an absence.

note: >-
  Hyatt runs a real, public, first-party coordinated vulnerability disclosure program and has
  done so since January 2019 — one of the first global hospitality brands to do so. This is a
  verified hit, so a Security pointer (the type the security_disclosure check reads) and a
  VulnerabilityDisclosure pointer are both wired in apis.yml. The program covers Hyatt's
  consumer web and mobile estate; it does not imply a developer API program, and none was
  found.
