a lista do Anchises (Brazilian security profiles)

ops culturesecurity

The roster of Brazilian and Portuguese information-security people and organisations that Anchises Moraes has maintained on his blog since January 2010 - started at 72 entries and grown past 770, with every addition dated in a public changelog at the foot of the post.

It is the closest thing the Brazilian scene has to a census. Researchers, lawyers, forensic examiners, journalists, police, hackerspaces, conferences, CTF teams and vendors all sit in one alphabetical list, and the update log doubles as a timeline of when each part of the community appeared. Anchises states his criteria openly, marks the most active people in italics, and has removed profiles that turned into self-promotion - editorial judgement applied in public, which is what separates a curated record from a directory. For anyone researching the scene it is the correct starting point, precisely because it is one person's honest list rather than an institution's.
