More details about features here.

Note: the inventory is a FLOSS (Free, Libre and Open-Source Software) project.

Why?

• Specialized websites: Some websites are referencing tools but additional information is not available or browsable. Make additional searches take time.
• Curated lists: Curated lists are not very exhaustive, up to date or browsable and are very topic related.
• Search engines: Search engines sometimes does find nothing, some tools or resources are too unknown or non-referenced. These is where crowdsourcing is better than robots.

Why should you care about being inventoried?

Mainly because this is giving visibility to your tool, more and more people are using the Rawsec's CyberSecurity Inventory, this helps them find what they need.

But mostly to help us.

Why the badge?

The badge shows to your community that your are inventoried. This also shows you care about your project and want it growing, that your tool is not an abandonware.

Also we took time to inventory your tool and you are gaining visibility from that: we added your tool to our inventory to make it known now it is your turn to add the badge to your project README to help our project being known.

In fact I must agree the badge is quite useless for your project but will greatly help our project being known. We are not looking for any recognition, we just want to share infosec knowledge and wish you will help us doing that by helping our project to be known.

Ok but...

You should think "I asked nothing to you, I don't need visibility or/and I don't like your badge": your are free not to use it.
