The problem is that you have a security setting turned on which is looking
for a GPG signature that EPEL doesn't have.
http://smoogespace.blogspot.com/2018/04/epel-security-profiles-in-el7-can-cause.html
The reason for the lack of GPG signatures on the repository metadata is due
to the fact that EPEL uses metalink which contains the signatures in the
xml delivered. Whether or not that meets various security requirements ends
up being something outside of my paygrade.
