Summary
add a timeout to our http calls to IT subs and compliance services
Why
right now we do not set an explicit timeout, and the go http client defaults to no timeout if none provided
we do not want to give our http calls the opportunity to hang indefinitely, so we set the timeout with a default of 10s
