Here are the proposed objectives for the Security Project in 2005 :

- Recruit new team members
It's very important to increase the size of our team, to ensure
that Gentoo will keep offering the same high level of security watch at
all times, to better spread the load and to allow team members to take
other tasks in the Gentoo project.

- Put new procedures in place to ensure kernel security
We will create a new kernel security subproject and a new kernel
security announcements system, to give our users live information on the
security vulnerabilities their kernels are exposed to and allow them to
planify kernel updates.

- Improve auditing
Put together a bigger team of auditors to find and report new
vulnerabilities in packages present in Portage.

- Get official CVE compatibility
Complete all steps required to get official MITRE CVE compatibility
certification.
