The Security Working Group manages all aspects and processes linked to Node.js security.
The Ecosystem Security Working Group works to improve the security of the Node.js Ecosystem.

Responsibilities include:
* Define and maintain security policies and procedures for:
* the core Node.js project
* other projects maintained by the Node.js Technical Steering Committee (TSC).
* Work with the Node Security Platform to bring community vulnerability data into
the foundation as a shared asset.
* Ensure the vulnerability data is updated in an efficient and timely manner. For example, ensuring there
are well-documented processes for reporting vulnerabilities in community
modules.
* Review and recommend processes for handling of security reports (but not the
actual administration of security reports, which are reviewed by a group of people
directly delegated to by the TSC).
* Define and maintain policies and procedures for the coordination of security
concerns within the external Node.js open source ecosystem.
* Offer help to npm package maintainers to fix high-impact security bugs.

This Working Group is _not_ responsible for managing or responding to
security reports against Node.js itself. That responsibility remains with
the [Node.js TSC][].
