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是一个开源的网络安全监视器（NSM），被全国许多NSF社区用来保护他们的网络基础设施。该项目建立了一个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点。该活动深入到规模较小的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来保护他们的基础设施。该活动将Bro作为一种全面的、低成本的安全能力推广给这些社区;为Bro安装的各个方面提供指导和支持。该项目为部署和集成设计了参考方案;并开发了迎合NSF环境的新技术能力。该项目支持现有的Bro用户优化和扩展他们的设置，并使Bro的功能可用于缺乏资源来自行有效部署Bro的新站点和项目。在技术层面上，该项目是Bro开源开发的焦点，维护其代码库和文档。对于研究社区来说，该项目通过利用Bro作为部署平台，将网络研究成果转化为实践。
