## 🥇 MAS Advocates

MAS Advocates are industry adopters of the OWASP MASVS and MASTG who have invested a significant and consistent amount of resources to push the project forward by providing consistent high-impact contributions and continuously spreading the word.

> 🥇 Being an "MAS Advocate" is the highest status that companies can achieve in the project acknowledging that they've gone above and beyond to support the project.
> 🥇 Being a "MAS Advocate" is the highest status that companies can achieve in the project, acknowledging that they've gone above and beyond to support the project.

We will validate this status according to these categories:

1. **Showing Adoption**: it should be clear just from looking at the official company page that they have adopted the OWASP MASVS and MASTG. For example:
- Services / Products
- Resources (e.g. blog posts, press releases, public pentest reports)
- Trainings
- etc.
2. **Providing consistent high-impact contributions**: by continuously supporting with time/dedicated resources with clear/high impact for the OWASP MAS project.
- Content Pull Requests (e.g. adding/upgrading existing tests, tooling, maintaining code samples, etc.)
**MAS Advocates continuously support the project with time/dedicated resources with clear/high impact**. To achieve this status, you'll need to demonstrate that you **make consistent high-impact contributions** to the project. For example:
- Content Pull Requests (e.g. adding/updating existing tests, tooling, maintaining code samples, etc.)
- Technical PR reviews
- Improving automation (GitHub Actions)
- Upgrading, extending or creating new Crackmes
- Moderating GitHub Discussions
- Providing high-value feedback to the project and for special events such as the MASVS/MASTG refactoring.
- Providing high quality feedback to the project and for special events such as the MASVS/MASTG refactoring.
- etc.
3. **Spreading the word** and promoting the project with many presentations each year, public trainings, high social media involvement (e.g. liking, re-sharing, doing own posting specifically to promote the project).

_NOTE: You have to satisfy all three categories in order to qualify as an MAS Advocate. However, you do not need to fulfill each and every bullet point (they are examples). In general, you must be able to clearly show the continuity of your contributions and high impact for the project. For example, to fulfill "2." you could demonstrate that you've been sending high-impact Pull Request in the initial 6 months period and intend to continue to do so._
The following will be considered but it's not a requirement:

- **Showing Adoption**: it should be clear just from looking at the official company page that they have adopted the OWASP MASVS and MASTG. For example:
- Services/products
- Resources (e.g. blog posts, press releases, public pentest reports)
- Trainings
- etc.
