Mozilla Winter of Security is back

At the Mozilla Blog, Julien Vehent announces that Mozilla will be conducting a second round of its "Winter of Security" mentoring program. Aimed at college students, the program allows participants to work on security-related free software for university credit, with guidance provided by Mozilla project members. This year's targeted project list includes some high-profile projects like Let's Encrypt and Mozilla's digital forensics tool MiG. Applications are due August 15.
