Security Policy

πŸ”’ Security Overview

The Enhanced Alpenglow Formal Verification project is committed to maintaining the highest security standards. This document outlines our security practices and how to report security vulnerabilities.

πŸ›‘οΈ What We Secure

Formal Verification Integrity

  • Mathematical Correctness: All proofs are machine-checkable
  • Property Completeness: Comprehensive coverage of security properties
  • Byzantine Fault Modeling: Realistic attack scenarios
  • Verification Reproducibility: Consistent results across environments

Code Security

  • Input Validation: All user inputs are validated
  • Dependency Management: Regular security updates
  • Access Controls: Proper authentication and authorization
  • Data Protection: Secure handling of sensitive information

🚨 Reporting Security Vulnerabilities

Responsible Disclosure

We encourage responsible disclosure of security vulnerabilities. Please:

  1. DO NOT create public GitHub issues for security vulnerabilities
  2. DO email security reports to: iamaanshaikh@cit.org.in
  3. DO provide detailed information about the vulnerability
  4. DO allow reasonable time for us to respond and fix the issue

What to Include

  • Description of the vulnerability
  • Steps to reproduce the issue
  • Potential impact assessment
  • Suggested fix (if you have one)
  • Your contact information

Response Timeline

  • 24 hours: Initial acknowledgment
  • 72 hours: Preliminary assessment
  • 7 days: Detailed response with timeline
  • 30 days: Fix implementation (for critical issues)

πŸ” Security Considerations

Formal Verification Security

  • All TLA+ specifications are publicly auditable
  • Model checking results are reproducible
  • No hidden assumptions or backdoors
  • Complete transparency in verification process

Infrastructure Security

  • Regular dependency updates
  • Secure coding practices
  • Input sanitization
  • Error handling without information leakage
