+### Snyk security scanning
+
+A Snyk online account has been set up for FEC to monitor the FECFile Online GitHub repositories. The management of vulnerability alerts will be handled as a weekly rotating task performed by a developer who will log into the [Snyk Dashboard](https://app.snyk.io/invite/link/accept?invite=93042de6-4eca-4bb5-bf76-9c2e9f895e24&utm_source=link_invite&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=product-link-invite&from=link_invite) and perform the following tasks:
+
+1. Review the vulnerability reports for each of the FECFile Online GitHub repository.
+2. Write up a ticket (1 for each reported "Critical" or "High" severity vulnerability) to remediate the vulnerability.
+3. Point and mark each ticket with the following tags: "security", "high priority".
+4. Move each new ticket into the current sprint and sprint backlog.
+5. Update weekly assignment log with tickets created or "None".
