🔐 Issue : Add SECURITY.md and Enable GitHub Security Features

[darshikadubey67]

👋 Hello Team!
I noticed there’s no SECURITY.md file in the repo, and I’d like to suggest adding one along with enabling some native GitHub security features.
🔍 Observations:

• No guidance on how to report vulnerabilities
• No .gitignore coverage for potential sensitive files
• GitHub security alerts and secret scanning may not be enabled
  ✅ Suggested Improvements:
• Create a SECURITY.md with reporting instructions and contact details
• Expand .gitignore to exclude env files and sensitive configs
• Enable GitHub secret scanning and Dependabot alerts
  💡 Why This Helps:
  Security transparency builds trust and protects contributors and users. I’d be happy to draft the initial file and help configure these features.
  Please assign this issue to me.
