Phil,
We prefer that our contributors and editors are volunteers. Our guides have always been publicly available and we have recently started converting their licensing to Creative Commons, which allows for derivative works under certain circumstances. Also, each published guide explicitly acknowledges its contributors and we broadcast its availability over social media and other channels. In addition we submit CPE credits on the volunteers behalf. We have also reached out to NGINX directly on this to have them review the created guidance once completed to provide input.

If you have any specific questions about volunteer or other opportunities, feel free to contact me directly.

Hello,
The Center for Internet Security is looking for some folks to help in the creation of a security benchmark for NGINX. We have a wide range of benchmark guides that are created by the cyber security community and we offer them free to the world. All of our benchmarks are created from a consensus team comprised of subject matter experts, vendors, CIS members, and folks that just want to help out. If anyone is interested in helping out here is a link to our project page https://benchmarks.cisecurity.org/community/projects/index.cfm#123. We list all contributors/editors/authors inside the benchmark as well, we can even submit for CPE credits on your behalf. Please let me know if you have any additional questions or if you are willing to help.



Thank you for your time J
