I am looking for the Python System Requirements and Security Whitesheets

About system requirements it really depends on the implementation of Python you're using, I don't know for cpython, but I've seen Python running on microcontrollers [1] so it can be made low if needed. About the Security Whitesheet I don't know what it is, don't hesitate to link me to some description (I'm french, it may be named differently here). But here's some security document that I can think of: - https://python-security.readthedocs.io/ an attempt to document security vulnerabilities in Python and the versions including the fix. - The Python documentation warns about security considerations by displaying warnings, for example in https://docs.python.org/3/library/xml.html it should be easy to gather them all by grepping in the rst files. - https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0578/: Python Runtime Audit Hooks

as these will both need to be reviewed by our IT and security team prior to being able to utilize the software.

This sentence looks strange to me as you're probably already using Python, even by not knowing it, few examples that pops in my mind are mosts Linux distrubtions (I'm having 77 Python scripts in my /bin/ on my Debian laptop now), and MacOSX that ship with Python already installed because they're using it. See also [2]. If you're auditing Python use internally, you should probably distinguish between "Python the language" and "Python implementations" (the software), as there's many Python implementations (like micropython previously mentionned).
