Security-wise, please rest assured that Compute Canada team members are taking every action possible to ensure that systems we run are secure. If you are operating your own virtual machine in our cloud, you are however responsible for updating its operating system to include the latest security patches (see next subsection). | |||
Performance-wise, if you believe that your application may be severely impacted by the security patches, please contact our [[Technical support]] team. We encourage you to bring forward comparative performance numbers of your application (job run time after and before for example). Keep in mind however that mitigating the performance impact of the security patches is likely to require some modification to the code you are running, and may not always be possible. | |||
