1. RSAC™ Community Member Code of Conduct

Welcome to the RSAC Community!

Our Mission

Our purpose and mission is to unite and empower the world's cybersecurity community in order to create a safer society.

To achieve this, we believe that sharing knowledge and learning together is the most powerful tool we can yield. We are building a place of trust for you to connect, learn, and grow with other members of the cybersecurity community to actively work toward this mission together.

Our Commitment

In this spirit, RSAC is committed to fostering a safe and productive environment in which diversity, equality, open dialogue, and the free expression of ideas can flourish with no harassment, discrimination, or hostile conduct. We recognize a shared responsibility to create and maintain this kind of environment for the benefit of all.

As a member of our community, we ask that you embrace and actively work to foster the type of environment and community that we’re aspiring to build, and to help create a sense of belonging for your fellow members.

How to Make This Community Great for All

If our mission and commitment resonate, you are in the right place! Building such a place takes each and every member. It’s as good as you make it. Here are the kinds of behavior we are looking for in that ethos.

Generosity

Be a kind human – Encourage others, give kudos, share in others’ wins and engage in discussions with respect and kindness. A little affirmation goes a long way.
Give more than you take – Be helpful when you can! Offer your knowledge, resources, and your network to others. What kind of support does your former self wish you received to help you get where you are today?
Stay curious – Ask questions of others; seek first to understand. Their perspectives and experiences are enlightening. Encourage others to share their views.
Welcome new members – Create a positive experience for all members. Say hello, extend an invite, make a connection. A friendly greeting can make a big difference!

Safety and Privacy

Respect Confidentiality: Protect the privacy and safety of all community members. Do not quote, name, or share information about others without their express permission.
Use Your Judgment: Discussions and content on the platform represent various opinions and have not been independently validated. Use discretion with the information presented.
Engage Sensitively: Foster discussions while being aware of others' feelings and perspectives.
Respect Intellectual Property: Acknowledge and adhere to all copyright notices and restrictions related to shared content.

Authenticity

Speak for Yourself: Share your thoughts and perspectives honestly, representing your own views and not those of others.
Be Responsible: You are accountable for your words and actions.
Cite Generative AI: If you utilize Generative AI in your posts, please disclose that.
Fact-Check: Before sharing, ensure the information is both true and accurate.
Credit Sources: Accurately credit third-party content and cite your references.

Unacceptable Behaviors

These are the behaviors to avoid if you would like to remain in good standing with this community and continue to gain the benefits of being a member. Here are some examples of what not to do.

Illegal and Privacy Violations

Disrespecting Privacy: Sharing personally identifiable content, files, or any information outside of the community without express consent from all parties involved is unacceptable. Confidential information is strictly prohibited from being shared.
Exposure: Do not announce zero-day vulnerabilities, post or distribute technical data that may violate export control regulations or upload malicious code.
Trademark Violations: No posting in violation of trademark, copyright or other proprietary rights.
Illegal Activity: The posting or sharing of illegal content, soliciting or facilitating illegal or prohibited transactions and/or engaging in (or attempting to engage in) any other type of illegal activity.
Sexual Activity: Distributing obscene or pornographic materials and/or materials incorporating nudity.

Deceit and Solicitation

Misrepresentation: Do not misrepresent your identity or impersonate others in any way.
False Information: Sharing misleading or false information is prohibited.
Spamming: Avoid posting repetitive content, self-promotion, or unsolicited messages that disrupt the community.
Sales Tactics: Refrain from soliciting funds or engaging in sales tactics of any kind. This encompasses promoting products or services in a way that feels intrusive or inappropriate within the community context.

Harassment and Hate

Bullying or Harassment: Debate ideas, not people. Do not use profanity. Shaming and intimidating, abusive, or derogatory conduct will not be tolerated.
Hate Speech: The use of hate symbols, imagery, or language is unacceptable.
Offensive Content: Posting content that offends based on race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, age, or political views is prohibited.
Intimidation and Sexual Advances: Engaging in intimidation, stalking, or making inappropriate advances is unacceptable.

Reporting Violations

Though we will try our best, our team and tooling can’t be everywhere all the time. Please report violations and know that your identity will remain strictly confidential to encourage a culture of looking out for each other and keeping the discussion in this community of the highest quality.

If you witness behavior that violates this Code of Conduct, please report it to RSAC immediately at member.support@onersac.com. We take these matters seriously and commit to being responsive and supporting the quality of this community.

Enforcement of the Code of Conduct

In our continued efforts to facilitate a safe and productive environment, we may modify or remove content and discussion in the community that does not comply with this Code of Conduct. If we observe or are informed of unacceptable behavior, we may take the following actions at our discretion:

Request to Stop: Send message identifying the unacceptable behavior, requesting that the behavior cease and offering guidance on proper community etiquette.
Notice to Stop: Provide a final warning with details of next steps if the behavior continues.
Make it Stop: Issue a temporary or permanent suspension from the community membership.

The details of this Code of Conduct apply to members both inside the community and out. If we receive reports of a member displaying any of the unacceptable behaviors above toward other members on email, text, socials, or any other public internet forum, we will investigate to make an informed decision. We reserve the right to enforce this Code of Conduct should we determine a violation has occurred.

Additional Information

This policy is subject to revision at any time by RSAC and is non-negotiable. Your participation in this community signifies your agreement to abide by these guidelines, which help us foster a safe and engaging environment for all.

Thank you for being a valued member of the RSAC Community! Together, we can achieve our mission to create a better society.

For questions, comments, or recommendations on any part of this Code of Conduct, please reach out to us at member.support@onersac.com. We would love to hear from you!

Notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA. See https://www.copyright.gov/ for details.
