This policy applies to all repositories under the NORSAIN-AI GitHub organization, including this .github governance repository. It sets minimum requirements for security reporting, review, and risk management for all NORSAIN-AI projects.
- Do not report vulnerabilities via public GitHub issues.
- Use GitHub Security Advisories (preferred) or email security@norsain.ai with "SECURITY" in the subject.
- Reports should include: vulnerability type, affected files/URLs, reproduction steps, impact, and suggested mitigations.
- Reports are triaged by designated maintainers or the Security Lead.
- We aim to acknowledge reports promptly, but cannot guarantee fixed response times.
- Confirmed vulnerabilities are tracked internally (ticketing/risk register) and prioritized by impact.
- Public disclosure is coordinated with the reporter when possible.
-
All NORSAIN-AI repos must:
- Avoid committing secrets or credentials.
- Use secret scanning and dependency scanning where supported.
- Apply least-privilege permissions in workflows and automation.
- Review all changes to workflows, templates, and permissions for security impact.
-
Security tools (code scanning, dependency scanning, container scanning) are used where practical and maintained. See each repo’s workflows for details.
-
All org-level workflow and permission changes require review by a designated maintainer.
- NORSAIN-AI strives to align with OWASP Top 10, CWE Top 25, and industry best practices where relevant.
- Secure coding, risk management, and incident response are governed by internal QMS/IMS procedures (reference internal documentation).
- All changes to
.githubworkflows, templates, and policies must be auditable and reviewed for org-wide impact.
- Security Lead (or delegate) is responsible for triage, risk assessment, and coordination of vulnerability response.
- All maintainers are responsible for following this policy and ensuring security reviews for impactful changes.
- NORSAIN-AI does not operate a formal bug bounty program.
- Security tools and processes may change over time; this document may not always reflect the current toolset.
- This policy does not guarantee specific response or resolution times.
