The CSA is in the process of replacing our online Circle communities. We are backing up the content, but if there are particular files or posts of interest to you then you might want to download a copy of your own.
CSA ZT workgroup communications will be transitioning to ZT Google group email conversations and the CSA ZT Slack channel (which retains only 90 days of history). csa-public.slack.com - #zero-trust-working-group. Join using this URL: https://csaurl.org/csa-public-slack
ZT volunteers should make sure that they are members of the CSA Zero Trust Working Group Google group, as well as the individual workstream groups of interest (see Structure section above) to get access to all ZT WG emails, meetings and files. You can request to join these groups by by emailing [email protected].
Here's the announcement from the CSA CEO, Jim Reavis
---------------------------------------------------
As part of our continued efforts to enhance collaboration and streamline communications, we will be retiring the CSA Circle Community platform on August 9th and officially transitioning all Working Group (WG) discussions and engagement to Slack.
- Why the Change?
Over the past couple of years, we've received valuable feedback about the need for a more dynamic, user-friendly, and integrated communication experience. After extensive evaluation, it was clear that Circle's engagement levels were low and that Slack offers a more streamlined, integrated experience that better aligns with how our teams and members collaborate today.
Slack delivers on these needs by offering:
Faster, real-time collaboration
Improved search and threaded conversation organization
Seamless integration with tools many of you already use
A more active and responsive space for Working Group engagement
What to Expect
- All WG communication, coordination, and community engagement will move to Slack starting August 9th.
- The Circle platform will be fully sunset by December 2025. Until then, Circle will remain in view-only mode, allowing limited access.
- All files will be transitioned to Google Drive, organized in WG-specific folders to maintain transparency and historical access.
- A detailed migration guide and Slack invites will be shared shortly.
We deeply appreciate everyone who contributed to making the Circle platform a valuable collaboration space. As we modernize, we’re excited to offer a more connected, agile, and engaging experience through Slack.
