Welcome to the Venafi Warrior Community!
At Venafi, we envision a world where machines are doing amazing things to improve our quality of life, and they are all safe and protected. We feel the same way about the Venafi Warrior Community. Our Venafi Warrior Community provides a trusted, safe, protected, fun environment to get answers, share ideas, collaborate, and learn best practices. This is a community designed to help make you more successful using Venafi. When you enter the community, you are joining an incredible network!
These participation guidelines will encourage appropriate behavior and best practices to maintain a trusted environment within the Venafi Warrior Community. This document is a guide to what’s in and out of bounds, as well as how to escalate an issue if a situation requires it.
We rely on our community members to notify us of behaviors that are inconsistent with these Community Participation Guidelines. If you need to report any issues or misuse of the community, please reach out to the Venafi Community Team at community@venafi.com. We also welcome your feedback, ideas, and questions regarding the Venafi Warrior Community to the same email address.
Venafi’s HEARTS Values
We live by a core set of values that are essential to our culture, and we encourage the members of our community to help us maintain that culture in the Venafi Warrior Community through these values. These values are called our HEARTS values, and they are woven into everything we do as a company, including our community. Let’s dig into these and how they relate to your participation in the community.
H- Honesty. Take the responsibility to be sincere and transparent in all actions and communications.
This is a professional community where we encourage our members to represent themselves authentically to get the most out of the collaborative nature of the community. What you can expect when you participate in the community is to have open, honest, and supportive discussions with a wide variety of Venafi customers, developers, partners, team members, and other Venafi enthusiasts.
E- Example (lead by). Treat other members of the community with respect and empathy.
Do not use threats, ethnic slurs, personal insults, or obscenity, or encourage anyone else to do so. Please do not engage in personal attacks or disparage any other participant in this community. It is OK to disagree, but be thoughtful and constructive in your discourse. Do not share your company’s confidential information or your own or anyone else’s personally identifiable information (in particular, do not “dox” anyone).
A- Awareness. The Venafi team and the members of our community work to have a situational understanding of both self and the environment that can only be discovered through listening, curiosity, and having empathy for others.
Before you post, please think about how it will be perceived. Also, please recognize that you are legally responsible for any content you post and that you may be subject to liability. If your posts are found defamatory, harassing, in violation of intellectual property rights or any applicable law, these Community Participation Guidelines, or InSided’s Terms of Use (our current community platform), Venafi reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to give warnings, remove or edit the post(s), and/or suspend or terminate membership from the community platform.
R- Risk Taking. The members of our community are excited to participate, share, and to work with peers to discover new, creative solutions to problems.
Embrace the community as an opportunity to share the great things you’ve been working on, to write about topics that you’re excited about, to practice your public speaking skills, and to use your expertise to help other community members be successful.
T- Team Before Self. We truly believe that our community members are an extension of our team. As individuals in the Venafi Warrior Community, we look out for each other and for the community as a whole.
We work together towards the common goal of helping drive the Venafi Warrior Community and the field of Machine Identity Management forward. We look to these HEARTS values to guide our actions to maintain a strong and successful Venafi Warrior Community.
S- Social Good. As Venafi Warriors, we care deeply about the world around us and actively support initiatives and programs that make the world a better place.
We encourage you to find and create opportunities to actively support social good as part of your efforts in the Venafi Warrior Community. We’ll be sharing different social good opportunities in the community and look forward to working together to make the world a better place.
