This patch is meant to address false-positive issues found by running the bandit static analysis tool. Most of the issues flagged were false positives, so the 'nosec' keyword has been added to the instances in order to allow bandit checks to pass. The one true positive was an except-always condition, which has been reduced to only continue for IOError cases. Change-Id: Ib9c51377544ca2dc7789a8eaabf9c432c579e00e
