Fedora uses identical processes for delivering security and non-security package fixes.  Unlike many other distributions that have security updates built only by members of their security teams, Fedora security updates are prepared by package maintainers.  Fedora Security Response Team aims to ensure that all known security flaws affecting components included in Fedora are reported to respective maintainers.
 
= Members =
 
Monitoring and reporting of the issues is currently handled by members of [https://access.redhat.com/security/team/ Red Hat Product Security].
 
= Goals =
 
* Monitor various security information sources for potential security problems (old and new ones)
* When an issue is discovered: file appropriate bugs, alerting the maintainer of the need to patch their package.
* Encourage and foster public discussion of various security issues and procedures via the fedora-security mailing list.
