Security Best Practices

For Users

  1. Keep Dependencies Updated: Regularly update dependencies
  2. Use Virtual Environments: Isolate Python dependencies
  3. Review Code: Review code before running benchmarks
  4. Limit Network Access: Benchmarks run locally by default
  5. Monitor Resources: Monitor resource usage during benchmarks

For Contributors

  1. Input Validation: Validate all inputs
  2. Resource Limits: Implement resource limits
  3. Error Handling: Handle errors gracefully
  4. No Secrets: Never commit secrets or credentials
  5. Dependency Review: Review dependencies for vulnerabilities

Known Security Considerations

Local Execution

  • Benchmarks execute locally on your machine
  • No external network access required (except Ollama)
  • All data stays local

Ollama Integration

  • Benchmarks connect to local Ollama instances
  • No authentication required (local only)
  • Ensure Ollama is not exposed to network

Resource Usage

  • Benchmarks may use significant CPU/GPU resources
  • Monitor system resources during execution
  • Implement resource limits if needed

Data Handling

  • All benchmark data stored locally
  • No data transmitted externally
  • Review data before sharing

Security Updates

Security updates will be:

  • Released as patch versions (e.g., 1.0.1)
  • Documented in CHANGELOG.md
  • Tagged with security label
  • Communicated to users
