What we’re about
A meetup for engineers* working in the SF Bay Area on systems for security detection, for enterprise and production (frequently cloud) networks. We're all working on the same problems, and converging on the same kinds of infrastructure (perhaps streaming platforms + rules/patterns + ML). Let's get together and share challenges, lessons learned, and successes!
This is a private group, but membership is open to anyone building or integrating detection engineering systems for operational teams. However, this is not a venue for vendor presentations.
***TO THOSE APPLYING FOR MEMBERSHIP***: I'm very happy to see that there's more interest in this group than I expected! To keep the group focused on the topics outlined above, I'd like to make sure that join requests are coming from real people that are working on (or are trying to get into working on) detection systems. Many people have very good reasons for using a pseudonym or shortened version of their name for their public profile--if you can just message me after you submit your request with a pointer to your LinkedIn profile or some other info about your background/work/interest in the group, I'll quickly approve your join request. In the end, I think our group will work better because we'll have our email list, message boards, and meetups filled with people who can contribute/benefit from the interactions!
* Data, Security, Software, Systems, and DevOps Engineers, their long-suffering SREs, and of course Data Scientists!
