| Ground rules ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In accepting membership in this group some very simple criteria were applied. Examples of requests that are denied:
- Individuals with no security expertise at all
- Representatives of vendors who are marketing or sales focused. (Executives, security experts who have transitioned to those roles, and any technical people are welcome).
- Recruiters.
As you can see this is a group open to security professionals, thought leaders, and managers in the security space.
