Forums security issues section

Hi Guys,
i wonder if we can add a "Security" concerned issues to the forum sections, it helps communicating new security bugs and holes, this is a critical issue for most of us if not all on these forums.

i know that a lot of them can be found if we dig deep in the forums, but i case of major findings, they can be highlighted on the front page :).

just a thought, i know it is already time consuming for you, the ADMINS, to monitor these forums.

We usually don't modify the categories of the forum unless absolutely necessary. Here's what I suggest:

We can start tracking security flaws in the Internet section of the forum. After a few months, if we generate enough activity, we might look into the matter.

Btw you're strongly encouraged to start the trend yourself ;-)

By all means, whenever you have a security related topic. Make sure the subject is as follows:

Security - [Subject]

When enough topics concerning security bugs and holes have been generated, we'll create a sticky and keep it updated with links to the relevant topics. Here's how we do it for the programming exercises.
