NatSecGirlSquad Herd Mentality 8.112.3

Herd Mentality is the private, closed ecosystem for the #NatSecGirlSquad community. Herd Mentality is a completely customizable content facilitation and delivery platform meeting existing security requirements for functionality on classified and unclassified networks. Members will be able to build their own profiles and the robust search functions allow members to find others with specific criteria, allowing and encouraging a connected, interactive community -- perfect for networking and mentorship opportunities. Herd Mentality comes with an existing library of hundreds of live and on-demand courses, a team of experts from across the national security apparatus, and unmatched experience in cultivating a diverse array of mentors, members, and leaders. Herd Mentality is the living home of #NatSecGirlSquad and is available on your phone, tablet, or computer. Each verified user is screened prior to onboarding using a customized AI-powered, human-centered domain: GOST. This recognized tool, used by leading financial institutions and the US government, is an open-source search and triage tool that builds a custom internet domain and organizes information to detect suspicious behavior. GOST re-indexes the open and deep webs to return publicly available electronic information (PAEI) in prioritized results relevant to the user’s requirements. By deploying machine-learning algorithms to refine search results and generate analytic scores, entities are sorted by relevance and threat level. The safety, security, and privacy of our community is our top priority. On Herd Mentality, members own their data, information and intellectual property and we guarantee we will never share or sell you to a third party. The platform is FedRAMP and GDR compliant and we independently vet each person to ensure that no one poses a security or conduct risk to our members. On Herd Mentality, you will find programming geared toward serving those in national security, defense, and intelligence, and you will be able to connect with others who share the same interest in creating a more resilient, capable, and agile national security and defense workforce. In addition to the content provided by us (monthly panels, upskilling courses, information sessions, and more), members will get as much if not more value from each other’s stories and experiences. Members tell us they were drawn to Herd Mentality for the content, but stayed for the community and the connections. 
 Herd Mentality is a community where we focus on building expertise, confidence in that expertise, and institutionalizing opportunities for success within existing systems. We want to ensure each individual has the information, ability, and support required to define professional and personal success for themselves, alter it as their priorities evolve, and achieve it over and over again.
