[jira] [Updated] (NUTCH-3166) Create a security page

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-3166?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Sebastian Nagel updated NUTCH-3166:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
The Nutch website lacks a security page describing the security model, best practices, do's and don'ts. It should cover:
- sensitive settings in the Nutch configuration
- the requirement of trusted access to configuration and log files
- securing the Nutch runtime
- security considerations for the Nutch REST API
- dangers of leaking private information if crawled content is exposed in a public search index

A starting point and example could be the [StormCrawler security page|https://stormcrawler.apache.org/security/].

The ASF security team also shared instructions about [Documenting your security model|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SECURITY/Documenting+your+security+model).
