Welcome to the OIBus GitHub Repository! Our security policy is designed to ensure the safety and integrity of our codebase and sensitive information. By following these guidelines, we aim to protect the repository and maintain its availability for all users.

This policy applies to everyone who interacts with the OIBus GitHub repository, including contributors, maintainers, and users. It covers all aspects of repository management, such as code contributions, access control, and incident response.

• Access Control: Ensure that only authorized individuals have access to the repository. Regularly review and update access permissions to maintain security.
• Code Review: Implement a mandatory code review process for all pull requests to identify and address security vulnerabilities early.
• Dependency Management: Regularly review and update dependencies to patch known vulnerabilities and keep the repository secure.
• Incident Response: Establish and maintain an incident response plan to address security incidents promptly and effectively.

• Secure Coding Practices: Follow secure coding practices to minimize the introduction of vulnerabilities in your contributions.
• Reporting Vulnerabilities: If you identify any security vulnerabilities or concerns, report them to the repository maintainers immediately at [email protected]. Your vigilance helps keep our repository secure.

• Least Privilege Principle: We grant the minimum level of access necessary for contributors to perform their tasks. This helps limit potential damage if an account is compromised.
• Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): We enforce the use of multi-factor authentication for all users with write access to the repository, adding an extra layer of security to your account.
• Regular Access Reviews: We conduct regular reviews of access permissions to ensure that access is still necessary and appropriate.

• Branch Protection Rules: We implement branch protection rules to prevent unauthorized changes to critical branches like main and stable.
• Dependency Scanning: We use dependency scanning tools to identify and address vulnerabilities in project dependencies, ensuring a secure codebase.

• Incident Reporting: Report security incidents and vulnerabilities to [email protected]. Avoid sharing them publicly, as this could facilitate potential exploits. When reporting, provide as many details as possible to help maintainers reproduce and fix the issue quickly.

Following the incident reporting:

• Incident Investigation: We conduct thorough investigations of security incidents to understand their root cause and impact.
• Remediation: We implement measures to remediate security incidents and prevent their recurrence.

• Policy Review: We review and update this security policy regularly to ensure its effectiveness and relevance.
• Compliance Monitoring: We monitor compliance with this policy and take appropriate action in response to violations.

For any security-related questions or concerns, please contact the OIBus repository maintainers at [email protected].
