Hi Zcash community!

At the end of March, our team at Least Authority [was selected](https://forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/rfp-zcash-ecosystem-security-lead-2023/45723/9) for the role of Zcash Ecosystem Security Lead ([more about that RFP](https://forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/rfp-zcash-ecosystem-security-lead-2023/45723)).

Starting in April, as part of our role, we are doing the following:

- **Security Audits** of Specifications and Codebases, along with published results;
- **Short Consultation Sessions** , on security topics, as needed, such as incident response investigation and remediation, management of data privacy in systems and threat modeling; and
- **Community Engagement** , including open office hours.

As noted, we’ll be coordinating our priorities with the ZCG Committee and posting monthly updates about our work here in this thread.

We’d appreciate any feedback, especially about how you’d like us to engage with the community and provide the most effective value in our role.

You can contact us here on the forums, if you have any questions, requests or suggestions!  
(You can also contact us at: [consulting@leastauthority.com](mailto:consulting@leastauthority.com) and we are able to chat via Signal, if that is your preference.)

The Least Authority team
