 * The `bump-version.yml` workflow has been adjusted to bump the `patch` version when the last version is determined to have been a `release` version; otherwise, the `build` version is bumped. (:issue:`1557`, :pull:`1569`).
 * The GitHub Workflows now use the `step-security/harden-runner` action to monitor source code, actions, and dependency safety. All workflows now employ more constrained permissions rule sets to prevent security issues. (:pull:`1577`).
