“At the OpenJS Foundation, security is a shared responsibility and a top priority. Our maintainers work at the frontlines of the JavaScript ecosystem, and we want to help ensure they have the tools, guidance, and support they need to protect users at every level. Through collaboration with our partners, we're raising the bar for open source security.”

Overview
JavaScript is foundational to the web, and OpenJS Foundation project maintainers are committed to securing this critical infrastructure. By collaborating with the broader ecosystem, the Foundation aims to share best practices, set baseline security standards, and secure resources to advance ambitious, transparent security goals across all OpenJS projects.
