Re: New c-nsp, j-nsp, a-nsp, etc mailing lists

Perhaps it is simple. Lots of people has moved on to other tools, forums, and communities. That is a good thing. I’m on 
Cisco-nsp and Juniper-nsp, but don’t see much activity. I tap into other communities when I need help (or fire up my 
LLMs trained for network engineering). 

As Chris mentioned, nsp-sec is retired. Most of the old timers are on other more effective tools/communities for TLP: 
RED and TLP: AMBER collaboration. Some of the original nsp-sec crew are now retired. 

If you are new to network security and looking for a “vetting path,” apply to get into FIRST NetSec SIG 
(https://www.first.org/global/sigs/netsec/). Another path is active participation in the NANOG security tracks (don’t 
just sit there, talk to the speakers and the ones who ask questions). 

Finally, a shout out to Chris. NSP-SEC was one of the very really “Security Trust Groups.” Chris sharing details of 
attacks, working to get other operators talking/sharing, and “trusting” that ‘compeditors’ were not going to abuse the 
trust demonstrated to many that we can have “security trust groups” that take collective action. Thanks Chris.
