I think this would be a good focus. We are looking at a 2 day work-fest (meaning many people would be block out 4 days (2 to travel, 2 to work)) and I think that would take up most of that 2 days. The next primary focus would be mapping what we have and how they talk to each other. Getting to know what is around and how it talks to everything is a time consuming task but once it is done, it makes figuring out what is left out in the wind, what we care about and what we don't much easier. > * Revamp firewall rules to further restrict traffic between machines. > * Come up with a better plan for signing servers > - In puppet or out of puppet? > - On demand vs always on > - ssh access, console, 2factor? > * Hash out a roadmap or plans around git commit signing. > - See if this is something we want to do > * Work on FAS security enhancements > - backup email address? > - security questions? > - better gpg integration? > - handling for 2 factor auth > * Setup a simple IDS of some kind? > - Notice non standard traffic in our internal nets > * Finish up keys.fedoraproject.org and announce it. > * Clean up selinux AVCs and move more things to enforcing. > * Your brilliant Fedora Infrastructure security related idea here. > > Possible dates: > > last week of Aug, First week of Sept? > (This puts us between the Alpha and Beta freezes, and is possibly > enough notice to get better airfair/etc rates). > somewhere in 2012-08-27 to 2012-09-10 > > First 2 weeks in Nov? > (After F18 is released, before thanksgiving) > somewhere in 2012-11-05 to 2012-11-16 > > Right before next Fudcon? > 2013-01-15 to 2013-01-17? > > Your exciting better dates here. > > Possible locations: > > Red Hat HQ in RDU? > pros: can probably get a room/network and pull in other RH folks > > Westford, MA > pros: could probably get a room/network and pull in other RH > engr folks. > > Other location here: > must be cheap to fly to/stay at, and have a facility we could > meet at and use. > > So, this is more a 'is there enough interest in this to peruse it' type > of email. > > How many folks would be interested in going to something like this? > > What dates or places would you prefer? > > Is there another topic that would be a better thing to do than > Security?
