Bro is an open source network security monitor (NSM) utilized by many NSF communities nationwide to protect their cyberinfrastructure. This project establishes a Bro Center of Expertise as a central point of contact for these communities to leverage Bro technology and expertise expertise. The activity reaches out to smaller NSF projects and communities helping them to use Bro in the most cost-effective and sustainable way to protect their infrastructures.This activity promotes Bro as a comprehensive, low-cost security capability for these communities; providing guidance and support on all aspects of a Bro installation. The project devises reference scenarios for deployment and integration; and develops novel technical capabilities that cater to NSF environments. The project supports existing Bro users in optimizing and extending their setups, and makes Bro's capabilities available to new sites and projects that lack the resources to deploy Bro effectively on their own. At a technical level, the project is the focal point of Bro's open-source development, maintaining its code base and documentation. To the research community, the project acts as a facilitator for transitioning networking research results into practice by leveraging Bro as a deployment platform.

Bro 是一款开源网络安全监视器 (NSM)，全国许多 NSF 社区都使用它来保护其网络基础设施。该项目建立了 Bro 专业知识中心，作为这些社区利用 Bro 技术和专业知识的中心联络点。该活动覆盖较小的 NSF 项目和社区，帮助他们以最具成本效益和可持续的方式使用 Bro 来保护其基础设施。该活动将 Bro 推广为这些社区的全面、低成本安全功能；提供 Bro 安装各个方面的指导和支持。该项目设计了部署和集成的参考场景；并开发适应 NSF 环境的新颖技术能力。该项目支持现有 Bro 用户优化和扩展其设置，并使 Bro 的功能可供缺乏资源来自行有效部署 Bro 的新站点和项目使用。在技​​术层面，该项目是Bro开源开发的重点，维护其代码库和文档。对于研究界来说，该项目通过利用 Bro 作为部署平台，充当将网络研究成果转化为实践的促进者。
