Hello /r/netsec,

I am excited to announce that we are opening up applications for new moderators to join the existing moderation team. As our community continues to expand, we want to ensure that we maintain the quality and integrity of the content shared here.

If you are passionate about information security and have a strong desire to help maintain and foster community, we encourage you to apply!

Preferred qualifications:

1. A history of posting links and/or comments to /r/netsec, demonstrating your active participation in the community.
2. At least 3 years of academic or professional experience in information security.
3. Not involved with the marketing team of any major vendor, to ensure unbiased moderation.
4. Have read and agree with the /r/netsec posting guidelines.

Application Process:

To apply, please submit the following information via ModMail:

1. Briefly describe your experience in information security, including any relevant certifications or qualifications.
2. Explain your history of posting and participating in the /r/netsec community.
3. Confirm that you are not involved with the marketing team of any major vendor.
4. Describe why you want to become a moderator for /r/netsec and how you can contribute to maintaining and enhancing the quality of our community.

We’ll review your application and /r/netsec posting history before deciding.

New moderator selections will be announced on May 31st.
