Special Interest Groups (SIGs)
Special Interest Groups exist to provide a forum where FIRST Members can discuss topics of common interest to the Incident Response community. A SIG is a group of individuals composed of FIRST Members and invited parties, typically coming together to explore an area of interest or specific technology area, with a goal of collaborating and sharing expertise and experiences to address common challenges.
Special Interest Groups are either:
Want to create a SIG?
FIRST Members who are interested in forming a new SIG should submit a request here: FIRST Sig Support

Working Groups
Working Groups are initiated by vote of the Board of Directors and based on a charter proposed by a member. They address a particular problem or concern of interest to FIRST members. Current working groups include:
- Academic Security SIG
- Automation SIG
- Cybersecurity Communications SIG
- CSIRT Framework Development SIG
- Cyber Insurance SIG
- Cyber Threat Intelligence SIG
- Detection Engineering & Threat Hunting SIG
- Digital Safety SIG
- DNS Abuse SIG
- Ethics SIG
- FIRST Multi-Stakeholder Ransomware SIG
- Human Factors in Security SIG
- Information Sharing SIG
- Law Enforcement SIG
- Malware Analysis
- NETSEC SIG
- PSIRT SIG
- Red Team SIG
- Security Lounge SIG
- Security Operations Center (SOC) SIG
- Strategic Thinking and Planning SIG
- Threat Intel Coalition SIG
- Transportation and Mobility SIG
- Vulnerability Coordination
- Vulnerability Reporting and Data Exchange
- Women of FIRST
Standards Groups
Standards Groups are intended to develop a standard for internal use or external publication. They are initiated based on a charter and a vote of the Board of Directors. Current Standards Groups include:
- Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS)
- Exploit Prediction Scoring System (EPSS)
- Information Exchange Policy
- Passive DNS Exchange
- Traffic Light Protocol (TLP)
Discussion Groups
Discussion Groups are less structured groups which allow for discussion on a particular topic. Discussion Groups do not require a charter but will generally not receive any direct resourcing from FIRST aside from meeting resources. Current Discussion Groups include:
Bird of a Feather Sessions
Bird of a Feather Sessions, who's activities primarily focus on meetings which take place at the conference based on the interest of a number of members. They are not necessarily intended to lead to year round work. When they do, the key participants can request one of the other types of groups above to be created.
