Can we make this group public?

We have so much activity in Spiceworks around Cyber Security seems we are missing an opportunity for those who are interested to check out this group?

I agree, what’s the secret? It would benefit all members to have this information available.

Let’s make it PUBLIC!

WOW STOP YELLING AT ME… LOL just kidding. I agree with you guys. I just took over the group when I joined spiceworks last month and couldnt get a response. I want everyone to be involved so I can learn as much as possible. I have to run some errands for awhile but I will look into seeing how to make it public for sure in less somebody gives me an iron clad reason why it can’t which I don’t see the benefit in that. If somebody reads this and knows how to take this group public please post it and Ill check-in in a bit.

And Thanks for the suggestion 100% best answer of the year!!!

There is a public area in Spiceworks for security already. see https://community.spiceworks.com/security Not saying this should stay private.

If anyone wanna post a private question, they can always post a general question then msg the person who have better insights for detailed or more private conversations.

I do not mind the the group changed to public if it can help others with their security related issues/questions.

There might be occasions when we’d like to keep discussions private for confidentiality, but in that case, DM is always possible as already suggested.

Wasn’t aware this was a super secret cabal of international cyber security agents.

As long as anyone who violates the rules is dealt with accordingly I see no problem with it. This isn’t FaceCrook or any other social site for childish behavior!! Trolling, name calling, and any other useless banter should not be tolerated!! This is a group of professionals and the conduct should be as such. There’s my 2 cents.

Ye why not, it should go public. cyber security is a vast space. Sharing knowledge and scenario helps mitigate

chris.hone · 2019-06-13T05:14:06.000Z

Let’s make it public. As long as everyone continues to use it correctly and only posts relevant questions, I see no problem with that

Sean-Spiceworks · 2019-07-18T12:17:04.000Z

I saw that @kareembadr4040 voted no on this; wondering why. But seeing as Conor doesn’t have any contributions (posts, that is) in this group, I think it’s safe to say that it wasn’t because of posting something they didn’t want made public.

Based on that, I think we’re good to go to make this one of the public, technology groups.

Sound good?
