Re: Security resources

[Kelly Martin <kel () securityfocus com>]

This list is a great place to start, however there are also many other
resources out there. I'll leave it to the seasoned list members here to
give you some links of their favorite places, but I can suggest looking at
the 29 other mailing lists from SecurityFocus for starters
(www.securityfocus.com/archive) for more specific subjects or if you are
interested in discussing something in very fine detail. Most of these
lists are moderated to virtually eliminate spam and off-topic posts, and
all have varying levels of traffic. You can also view all messages posted
to the lists because they are archived on the website as well and we do
not allow them to be removed. Checking the archives before you subscribe
will help in deciding if you would find a list useful.

Bugtraq is the busiest list with between 50,000 to 65,000 subscribers,
depending on the time of year, umm, the phase of the moon perhaps and
whatever other reasons the numbers go up and down... :) The
Security-Basics list varies between ten to fifteen thousand subscribers,
in comparison.

Welcome to the Security-Basics mailing list.
