We are a nonprofit vehicle for the development of secure cooperative networks in Tucson, AZ. We have an educational and a charitable mission.

We run free courses, user groups, and trainings for everyone in the community:

  • Coming up: B9-LUG (BSD, 9 Plan, Linux User Group) will be happening Friday 2026-04-17 5:45p MST at No Anchovies on University Blvd.
  • Coming up: We got an invitation to this year's Security and Human Behavior (SHB)! Here's our talk description. Members, let us know what you want us to include, and we'll credit you!
  • Science City was a great success! Our demo. enlisted visitors to help us send a frame half-duplex across a solar-illuminated photonic channel (*cough*, we signalled across the road by waving flags) using SFSS. Welcome to our newest members!

We run a variety of member services on our locally-colocated OpenBSD servers, including

  • Jitsi Videoconferencing - Configured to actually work, and to be reasonably secure
  • Nextcloud private cloud - File storage, contacts, calendars, document editing, and more
  • Cryptpad - Secure collaborative editing
  • Tor onion services - Serve web sites, chat, and more, without intermediaries
  • Plan 9 accounts - Access our CPU server over drawterm
  • Shell accounts - Always
Members are also given access to training on our equipment at the datacenter, and free access to events we host from time to time.

Membership for those in the greater Tucson area is available as a trial (1 month, at $8), quarterly (3 months, at $16), and yearly (1 year, $32).
