Hello there, new listserv-er here. I'm the ops lead for the DHS NCATS scanning service mentioned previously-- a colleague of mine alerted me to this discussion, so I hope you'll forgive the interjection. Cyber Hygiene, our service that scans internet-facing systems, is (basically) available to all comers, and the https://github.com/dhs-ncats/services link outlines the contours of the service decently-- I'm also happy to answer any questions you might have.
<snip> Wait a second, let me get this right. There's an entity offering a service and you represent that entity...so you're basically a vendor...but you don't reference Gartner whitepapers, you don't mention being a leader in the Magic Quadrant or "best in breed/class" and you aren't going on about how your "next gen scanning service" can detect all the things and help identify problems with machine learning/next gen AI/etc. Does anyone know if Cameron and this "DHS" actually exist or is this an elaborate Sys-Admin Day hoax to Rick-roll everyone visiting their github project? Seriously, welcome to the group. I don't know if/when the SPC program committee will hit you up to be in Baltimore, or if any schools who are using the service are interested in presenting about their experiences, but I know *I* would certainly try to go to a presentation by <x schools> and the ops lead for a .gov vulnerability scanning service. kmw
