* How can users and customers check if a given CVE is fixed or which CVE have been fixed in a given version of Qt
** a good way would be to use JIRA since most CVE cases are listed there. A filter that provides a report can be exported
* We need to create a software BOM for Qt, ideally in a machine-readable format
* With this list, we could use specialized scanners to search and alert about CVE-related changes
* Black Duck does not seem a good tool for this. It does not provide sufficiently reliable results
* we should reduce the chances that we introduce something that can become a security issue. Does the Security Review help here
* How to draw a border where the API user starts to be responsible to harden their implementation on top of Qt


==Notes==
Action points:
* make sure to have all maintainers on the security list
* update sec. relevant changes in 3rd parties in docs
* try to create such a JIRA filter and see how its report looks like
* check the project https://snyk.io/
* central page to copy and page relevant CVE emails
* Qt Security Overview page
* It was mentioned in the main talk: we need to disable approver accounts which are not in use for a given (long) time
