Tiny Awards: Celebrating the Goodness of the Homemade Web

7 June 2024 at 16:17
Thanks to (MeFi's own) Matt Muir, it's the return of the Tiny Awards, "a small prize to celebrate interesting, small, craft-y internet projects and spaces which basically make the web a more fun place to be." Nominations are open until June 23. Via the excellent Web Curios, also brought to us by Matt.

From the site: "We hoped it would be a small contribution to celebrating 'people making stuff on the internet for the fun of it and the love of it and the hell of it'. We were thrilled to see that people seemed to like the idea, so we're doing it again in 2024 - still tiny, still celebratory, and still (hopefully) helping spread the word about some of the small, personal, whimsical, weird and poetic things people are making on what is left of the web." Last year's winner.

USF College of Engineering Presents Rapid7 With 2024 Corporate Impact Award

USF College of Engineering Presents Rapid7 With 2024 Corporate Impact Award

This past Friday, April 19, the University of South Florida (USF) College of Engineering recognized individuals and organizations who have greatly impacted USF and beyond at its ninth annual Engineering Honors Awards at The Armature Works in Tampa. I had the honor of joining my colleagues, including Rapid7 CEO, Corey Thomas, who accepted the Corporate Impact Award on behalf of the company.

The Corporate Impact Award is among the highest and most prestigious recognitions given by the College of Engineering. It recognizes Rapid7’s significant contributions to the College and its students. Receiving this award is incredibly gratifying for the Rapid7 Labs team as well as the greater Rapid7 organization.

In February 2023, the Rapid7 Cybersecurity Foundation invested in USF to create the Rapid7 Cyber Threat Intelligence Lab. Furthermore, Rapid7 is actively working with a multi-disciplinary team at USF to research and develop training to better educate students for taking SOC roles, funded by the National Science Foundation and the Office of Naval Research.

Equally important has been Rapid7’s enthusiasm for directly working with researchers, professors, and students. Our Open Data Initiative provides real-world data derived from internet scans and honeypot data. We support research into training future SOC professionals by exposing them to teams working to protect our networks. A significant number of our teammates in Rapid7’s Tampa office are graduates from University of South Florida, a trend we aim to continue.

The future of Rapid7 and USF is bright, especially with the recent announcement of the formation of the College of AI and Cybersecurity at University of South Florida.

Rapid7 would like to not only thank the USF College of Engineering for recognizing our efforts in supporting the College, but more importantly, we want to thank them for being a great partner in driving research in the cybersecurity field as well as working alongside us to train the next generation of professionals. The future of cybersecurity depends on helping today’s students gain the tools they need to be successful, an area where University of South Florida excels.
