Hard to disagree with
@mattaereal; public/open goods are undervalued, leading to builder burnout as written in latest
@theredguild article
Imagine incident response without
@_SEAL_Org, static analysis without slither from
@trailofbits, or learning security basics without
@PatrickAlphaC videos.
When
@drdr_zz and I were creating SCSVS, many people were eager to use it, treating it as a checklist or reference. Many things were created on top of it. However, few people actively contributed.
This is partly due to the lack of desire to build someone's brand (which is understandable), but it is not the only reason, as we see in many joint and non-branded initiatives that also have similar struggles.
Without the support of sponsors or super high motivation, it's difficult to actively develop such projects.
With the New Year slowly approaching, why not make a change?
One project that deserves way more attention is Security Frameworks. It offers quick, actionable insights across a massive range of security topics.
The sad part? When I send it to clients, most are hearing about it for the first time.
