This wallet address that is currently in our Security Council is the same wallet that was used by @Janabe to run for the September 2024 Security Council Nomination phase [here](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/arbitrum/council/security-council/election/2/round-1/candidate/0x59c8535419BbCb8AdFFDB3C835435E907e3B183B).

This wallets’ Tally profile name and photo were edited after the September 2024 elections, so right now, [this looks like](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/arbitrum/council/security-council/election/2/round-1) we had 2 @dennison running for the security council election in September 2024, and the one that was not elected is the one currently in our Security Council.

Also, the description of this nominee looks really weird [here](https://www.tally.xyz/gov/arbitrum/council/security-council/election/2/round-1/candidate/0x59c8535419BbCb8AdFFDB3C835435E907e3B183B) since this is @Janabe experience and not @dennison experience as the CEO of Tally.xyz

 ![CleanShot 2025-03-31 at 15.29.07@2x](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex029/uploads/arbitrum1/original/2X/2/2b3749a61e9b203efc42f3337586a3282c38fb82.jpeg)

As additional context, @Janabe recently publicly disclosed [here](https://forum.arbitrum.foundation/t/opco-oat-applications-nominations/28555/11) on her OAT Election Application that:

> [@OpCo - OAT Applications & Nominations](https://forum.arbitrum.foundation/t/opco-oat-applications-nominations/28555/11):
>
> Spouse of Dennison Bertram, current member of Arbitrum’s Security Council

Given this, and the fact that it is recommended that the Security Council wallets to be fresh wallets with no previous history, and this wallet [has onchain activity](https://arbiscan.io/address/0x59c8535419BbCb8AdFFDB3C835435E907e3B183B) of the previous nominations (2 for Dennison, 1 for Jana), I recommend that @dennison Security Council key to be rotated, again, into a fresh new hardware wallet, just for extra measure, and to ensure that only Dennison has access to it.
