## TLDR

- The Security Council is initiating a non-emergency action to enable the non-emergency path to perform key rotations.
- After that is complete, some members will be rotating into new addresses within the council (the members are the same but in new addresses with more secure setups).

No actions need to be taken by users of Arbitrum One or Arbitrum Nova. We will update this thread as we progress through the steps of enabling the action and rotating the security council member’s keys. If you have any questions, please do respond on this thread!

# Enabling and Enacting Key Rotation

Four security council members have opted to rotate their keys:

- Open Zeppelin
- Zellic
- fred
- Certora

Additionally, Mike from Open Zeppelin will be replaced by Omer Greisman.

To facilitate the key rotation, we require two non-emergency security council actions:

- **Enable Action.** The non-emergency security council must be authorized and given the power to perform a key rotation.
- **Perform Rotation.** Rotate the keys of security council members.

In both cases, the non-emergency security council will authorize actions to first enable them to perform a key rotation and then rotate the keys for four security council members. This will require two separate transactions that must follow the non-emergency security path. Each action requires ~14 days to complete.

The Enable Action smart contract can be viewed in [Security Council Manager Affordance Change Action by godzillaba · Pull Request #284 · ArbitrumFoundation/governance · GitHub](https://github.com/ArbitrumFoundation/governance/pull/284)

We will update this thread once the Security Council has authorized each transaction alongside the timeline for its activation.
