Since a lot of those questions are about operations, you can also look through wikitech.wikimedia.org, where you can find various policies documented. You can even download all of our server configs, if you really want to see how we implement everything. In general, we follow pretty basic best practices for assigning user rights, patching, etc.

Hello,
Thanks for your assistance. I'm checking out the pages you listed. If possible, I also would like to know something about your security regulations and rules applying to the internal, like what the staff is forbidden to do in order to ensure the security of information systems? What software or hardware Wikimedia uses to protect the database?
I'm very pleased that you help my asks.

Hello,
I'm a undergraduate in China. I would like to learn about some detailed information about your organization's information security methods and regulations, because I want to use Wikimedia as an example and introduce its security regulations on my Information security lecture.
If it is available, would you please give me some description on what information security regulations and methods your organization applies,
in
terms of software, hardware, network, data storage and personnel?
Thank you very much :)
Hi there! Thanks for your email.
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Security and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Security_for_developers will probably give you a lot of information. You can also attend a security training on Wednesday remotely via IRC -- but only if you read and view prerequisite materials. More information at http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2013-March/067630.html .
Hope this helps!
