+# Security Policy
+
+## Supported Versions
+
+This workshop repository is continuously updated. We recommend always using the latest version from the `main` branch.
+
+| Version | Supported          |
+| ------- | ------------------ |
+| main    | :white_check_mark: |
+| older   | :x:                |
+
+## Reporting a Vulnerability
+
+We take the security of our workshop materials seriously. If you discover a security vulnerability in any of the code examples, tools, or documentation, please report it responsibly.
+
+### How to Report
+
+**Please do NOT report security vulnerabilities through public GitHub issues.**
+
+Instead, please report them via:
+
+1. **GitHub Security Advisories** (Preferred):
+   - Navigate to the repository's Security tab
+   - Click "Report a vulnerability"
+   - Fill in the details
+
+2. **Direct Email**:
+   - Contact the repository maintainer directly
+   - Use a clear subject line: "Security Vulnerability in GitHub Copilot Workshop"
+   - Include detailed information about the vulnerability
+
+### What to Include
+
+When reporting a vulnerability, please include:
+
+1. **Type of vulnerability** (e.g., SQL injection, XSS, insecure configuration)
+2. **Location** (file path and line numbers)
+3. **Description** of the vulnerability
+4. **Potential impact** if exploited
+5. **Steps to reproduce** the vulnerability
+6. **Suggested fix** (if you have one)
+7. **Your contact information** for follow-up questions
+
+### Example Report
+
+```markdown
+## Vulnerability Report
+
+**Type**: SQL Injection
+**Location**: `app/examples/database.py:45-50`
+**Severity**: High
+
+### Description
+The database query uses string concatenation instead of parameterized queries,
+making it vulnerable to SQL injection attacks.
+
+### Current Code
+```python
+query = f"SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = '{username}'"
+cursor.execute(query)
+```
+
+### Impact
+An attacker could execute arbitrary SQL commands, potentially:
+- Accessing sensitive user data
+- Modifying or deleting database records
+- Escalating privileges
+
+### Reproduction Steps
+1. Set username parameter to: `' OR '1'='1`
+2. Execute the query
+3. All user records are returned
+
+### Suggested Fix
+Use parameterized queries:
+```python
+query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = ?"
+cursor.execute(query, (username,))
+```
+
+### References
+- [OWASP SQL Injection](https://owasp.org/www-community/attacks/SQL_Injection)
+```
+
+## Response Timeline
+
+- **Initial Response**: Within 48 hours
+- **Status Update**: Within 5 business days
+- **Fix Timeline**: Depends on severity
+  - Critical: 1-3 days
+  - High: 1 week
+  - Medium: 2 weeks
+  - Low: Next regular update
+
+## Disclosure Policy
+
+- We follow a **coordinated disclosure** process
+- Security vulnerabilities will be fixed before public disclosure
+- We will credit reporters (unless they prefer to remain anonymous)
+- A security advisory will be published after the fix is released
+
+## Security Best Practices for Workshop Users
+
+### When Using Workshop Examples
+
+1. **Never use production credentials** in examples
+2. **Review all code** before running it in your environment
+3. **Update dependencies** to their latest secure versions
+4. **Understand the code** before deploying to production
+5. **Follow security best practices** outlined in the workshop
+
+### For Code Examples
+
+The workshop includes intentionally vulnerable code examples for educational purposes. These are clearly marked:
+
+```python
+# ⚠️ VULNERABLE CODE - FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY
+# This code demonstrates a SQL injection vulnerability
+# DO NOT USE IN PRODUCTION
+```
+
+**Always check for these warnings before using code.**
+
+### API Keys and Secrets
+
+- **Never commit real API keys** to any repository
+- Use **environment variables** for sensitive configuration
+- Use **placeholder values** in examples (e.g., `YOUR_API_KEY`)
+- Enable **GitHub secret scanning** on your own repositories
+
+### Infrastructure Examples
+
+Terraform and deployment examples in this workshop may include:
+
+- Simplified security configurations for learning purposes
+- Public access settings for demonstration
+- Default credentials (clearly marked)
+
+**Always harden security before production deployment:**
+
+1. Enable encryption at rest and in transit
+2. Implement proper network security groups
+3. Use managed identities instead of API keys
+4. Enable logging and monitoring
+5. Follow principle of least privilege
+6. Regular security audits
+

+
+### Module 3: Networking & Security
+- Enterprise firewall considerations
+- Proxy configuration security
+- Traffic inspection techniques
+- Allowlist management
+
+### Module 4: Customization
+- Secure handling of custom instructions
+- Protecting sensitive data in prompts
+- Safe use of extensions
+

+
+## Testing
+
+### Manual Testing with cURL
+
+```bash
+# Test root endpoint
+curl http://localhost:5000/
+
+# Test health check
+curl http://localhost:5000/health
+
+# Test API info
+curl http://localhost:5000/api/v1/info
+
+# Test echo endpoint
+curl -X POST http://localhost:5000/api/v1/echo \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{"message": "Hello from cURL"}'
+```
+
+### Manual Testing with Python
+
+```python
+import requests
+
+base_url = "http://localhost:5000"
+
+# Test root endpoint
+response = requests.get(f"{base_url}/")
+print(response.json())
+
+# Test echo endpoint
+data = {"message": "Hello from Python"}
+response = requests.post(f"{base_url}/api/v1/echo", json=data)
+print(response.json())
+```
+
+### Automated Testing
+
+Run tests with pytest:
+```bash
+pytest tests/test_app.py -v
+```
+
+## Using with GitHub Copilot
+
+This application is designed to demonstrate GitHub Copilot capabilities:
+
+### Code Completion
+1. Open `app.py` in your IDE
+2. Try adding a new endpoint by typing a comment:
+   ```python
+   # Add a new endpoint for user greeting with name parameter
+   ```
+3. Watch Copilot suggest the implementation
+
+### Code Generation
+Ask Copilot Chat:
+- "Add input validation to the echo endpoint"
+- "Create a middleware for request logging"
+- "Add rate limiting to the API"
+- "Generate unit tests for all endpoints"
+
+### Refactoring
+Select code and ask Copilot:
+- "Refactor this to use blueprints"
+- "Add async/await support"
+- "Improve error handling"
+- "Add request validation with marshmallow"
+
+### Documentation
+Ask Copilot Chat:
+- "Generate OpenAPI/Swagger documentation for this API"
+- "Create a Postman collection for these endpoints"
+- "Write integration tests for the API"
+
+## Workshop Exercises
+
+### Exercise 1: Add a New Endpoint
+**Objective**: Practice using Copilot for code generation
+
+1. Add a `/api/v1/status` endpoint that returns server statistics
+2. Include: timestamp, uptime, request count
+3. Use Copilot to generate the implementation
+
+### Exercise 2: Add Input Validation
+**Objective**: Enhance API robustness
+
+1. Add validation to the echo endpoint
+2. Require specific fields in the request body
+3. Return appropriate error messages
+4. Use Copilot to suggest validation patterns
+
+### Exercise 3: Add Authentication
+**Objective**: Implement security features
+
+1. Add API key authentication
+2. Protect all `/api/v1/*` endpoints
+3. Add an `/auth/login` endpoint
+4. Use Copilot to implement JWT tokens
+
+### Exercise 4: Add Database Integration
+**Objective**: Work with data persistence
+
+1. Add SQLite database support
+2. Create a simple User model
+3. Add CRUD endpoints for users
+4. Use Copilot to generate database operations
+
+## Docker Support
+
+### Build Image
+```bash
+docker build -t copilot-workshop-api .
+```
+
+### Run Container
+```bash
+docker run -p 5000:5000 copilot-workshop-api
+```
+
+### Docker Compose
+```bash
+docker-compose up
+```
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+| Variable | Description | Default |
+|----------|-------------|---------|
+| `FLASK_DEBUG` | Enable debug mode | `False` |
+| `PORT` | Server port | `5000` |
+
+## Project Structure
+
+```
+app/
+├── app.py              # Main application file
+├── requirements.txt    # Python dependencies
+├── README.md          # This file
+└── tests/             # Test files (optional)
+    └── test_app.py    # Unit tests
+```
+
+## Best Practices Demonstrated
+
+1. **Type Hints**: All functions use type annotations
+2. **Docstrings**: Comprehensive documentation for all endpoints
+3. **Error Handling**: Custom error handlers for common HTTP errors
+4. **Configuration**: Environment-based configuration
+5. **REST Conventions**: Proper use of HTTP methods and status codes
+6. **JSON Responses**: Consistent JSON structure
+7. **Health Checks**: Standard health check endpoint
+8. **API Versioning**: Version prefix in URLs (`/api/v1/`)
+
+## Common Issues
+
+### Port Already in Use
+```bash
+# Find process using port 5000
+lsof -i :5000
+
+# Kill the process
+kill -9 <PID>
+
+# Or use a different port
+export PORT=8080
+python app.py
+```
+
+### Import Errors
+```bash
+# Make sure you're in the app directory
+cd app
+
+# Install dependencies
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+## Next Steps
+
+1. Explore the code with GitHub Copilot
+2. Try the workshop exercises
+3. Add your own endpoints
+4. Experiment with Copilot Chat for refactoring
+5. Use custom prompts to enhance the application
