# Security Disclaimer
#### :warning: WARNING: This is an *early preview*
----
In the spirit of transparency, we provide this as a window into what we are actively
developing. This is an alpha build, not yet intended for 3rd party use. Please be advised
of the following:
* 🛑 This code currently is not audited. 🛑
* ❌ This is a public, active branch with **no support**.
* ❌ The code **does not have** documentation that is reviewed and approved by our Documentation team.
* ❌ The code **does not have** adequate unit tests, acceptance tests and stress tests.
* ❌ The code **does not have** automated tests that use the officially supported CI system.
* ❌ The code **has not been subjected to thorough review** by engineers at the Electric Coin Company.
* :warning: This library **is** compatible with the latest version of zcashd, but there **is no** automated testing of this.
* :heavy_check_mark: The library **is not** majorly broken in some way.
* ❌ The library **only runs** on testnet.
* ❌ The library **does not run** on mainnet or regtest.
* ❌ We **are actively rebasing** this branch and adding features where/when needed.
* ❌ We **do not** undertake appropriate security coverage (threat models, review, response, etc.).
* :heavy_check_mark: There is a product manager for this library.
* :heavy_check_mark: Electric Coin Company maintains the library as we discover bugs and do network upgrades/minor releases.
* :heavy_check_mark: Users can expect to get a response within a few weeks after submitting an issue.
* ❌ The User Support team **has not yet been briefed** on the features provided to users and the functionality of the associated test-framework.
* ❌ The code is **not fully-documented**.
### 🛑 Use of this code may lead to a loss of funds 🛑
Use of this code in its current form or with modifications may lead to loss of funds, loss
of "expected" privacy, or denial of service for a large portion of users, or a bug which
could leverage any of those kinds of attacks (especially a "0 day" where we suspect few
people know about the vulnerability).
### :eyes: At this time, this is for preview purposes only. :eyes:
